One of their songs is a duet called 'Two Different Worlds.' Five years ago, a friend introduced him to jazz vocalist Claudia Eliaza, a music therapist whose family is Haitian American.

The former lead singer of the 1980s rock band the Del Fuegos, Zanes founded the anti-racist organization Constructive White Conversations. Love was the guide for Dan Zanes, who's known as the godfather of the children's music renaissance. 'That's a manual for life right there in one sentence,' Dan adds. 'He says, 'So I say to you, walk with the wind, brothers and sisters and let the spirit of peace and the power of everlasting love be your guide,'' Claudia says. The husband/wife duo say they were inspired by the words Lewis wrote in his final New York Times opinion piece, published the day of his funeral. The title track is an homage to the late congressman and civil rights leader John Lewis. 'It's an anthem of love and joy and possibility and community,' Claudia says, speaking from their home in Baltimore.

Smithsonian Folkways has just released their first duo album, Let Love Be Your Guide. Social justice, anti-racism and joy: These are the themes of a collection of original songs written by family musicians Dan and Claudia Zanes.
