Darren Criss and wife Mia Swier have announced a new member in their family band.

The Golden Globe winner, 37, announced the birth of their second child on Thursday, sharing a cute photo of the smiling baby boy wearing a pair of adult sunglasses.

‘M & D just delivered their follow-up single. Brother László Criss 6/3/24,’ Criss captioned the post. ‘Out now. … and yes his first name is Brother’

After welcoming Bluesy, Criss opened up to People about first-time fatherhood while starring on Broadway in a revival of American Buffalo. 

‘It’s a blessing to get all these things happening kind of all at once – personal, home stuff happening among the same fun, prosperity and excitement that is existing in my professional life – there’s something that’s very invigorating about that,’ he said.

‘So I’m rockin’ and rollin’,’ added Criss. ‘Chaos begets chaos. And I, for better or worse, tend to thrive on a bit of chaos.’
