Boston Manor‘s lead vocalist Henry Cox and his wife Jo welcomed their new baby into the world and shared the news with followers on December 20.
“Phoebe Margot Cox came into this world today at 2:40am. She is more amazing than I could have imagined and I can’t stop crying,” Henry said in an Instagram caption.
He further shared, “I am so proud of @littlefishsticks for enduring a really difficult birth & being so brave. She worked so hard and went through so much for over 24 hours & somehow looked stunning the whole time. I am in awe of you. Women truly are amazing & I am the luckiest guy in the world.”
The frontman then quoted Radiohead‘s dreamy piano ballad “Sail To The Moon,” sharing the lyrics “Maybe you’ll be president/But know right from wrong/Or in the flood you’ll build an ark/And sail us to the moon.”

Plus, Creeper‘s Will Gould, Sleeping With Sirens‘ Kellin Quinn, Neck Deep‘s Ben Barlow, and more genre friends offered their congratulations.
Of course, Trash Boat‘s frontman Tobi Duncan made a lighthearted joke under the birth announcement commenting, “0/10 you didn’t name her Tobi 🙁 (congratulations brother).”
In an Instagram story, new mother Jo shared some sweet family photos. “Already the best dad in the world,” the post reads. “Thank you so much for your support.”
We wish both new parents huge congratulations and are overjoyed to see that Phoebe is finally here.
