Just found out recently whilst watching The Chase that Jake from Rixton was the son of Shane Ritchie (#2 in 2003 with I'm Your Man) and Coleen Nolan of The Nolans.

Got me thinking how many charting solo artists or group members can we find, whose parents, step-Parents also made the charts before them.

Julian Lennon/John Lennon. Damian Marley/Bob Marley. Natalie Cole/Nat King Cole. Kelly Osborne/Ozzy Osborne. I'm sure there are countless examples though.

Yeah, I think Alexandra Burke's mum only sang on some of the early singles, before they had any hits.

As mentioned in Sunday's commentary, Marlon Roudette's step-mother is Neneh Cherry.

Hayley Mills is better-known for her acting, but she did have a hit single in 1961. Her son, Crispian, was in Kula Shaker.

OK, what about three generations? Any examples where an artist's parent and also grandparent has made the charts?

This is definitely scraping the barrel but Matthew Healy of The 1975 fame is son of Loose Woman Denise Welch, who had a no.23 chart smash in 1995 with 'You Don't Have to Say You Love Me/Cry Me a River' magic.gif

On a serious note, Julio/Enrique Iglesias.

Muse have a lot of #1 albums, and singer Matt Bellamy's dad was a member of The Tornados who had a #1 hit in 1962.

The closest I can think of to three generations starts with Ewan MacColl. He didn't have a hit as a performer, but he did write The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face and other hits. His daughter, Kirsty MacColl, had hits both as a performer and as a writer. Her nephew (and Ewan's grandson), Jamie, is in Bombay Bicycle Club.
