Ah, we have Raffi, but we also have stuff like Dog Train and Philadelphia Chickens. Music by Sandra Boyton, often employing celebrity talents for the songs. A few favorites are Snuggle Puppy, Boring Song, I Need A Nap (with Weird All & Kate Winslet), BusyBusyBusy, Dragonfire, Pig Island
You should really check out "They Might Be Giants" as well. :) They've started making children's music a few years ago. It may take a few listens for the songs to grow on you, but they are awesome. :)
The No! album has got some great songs, favs are Fibber Island, Violin, I Am Not Your Broom, The House At The Top Of The Tree
Be sure to peruse the "Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought" section for some good ideas of similar whimsical modern kids music.
We like almost all the songs from Here Come The 123s quite a bit. Funny, whimsical music videos as well. Some of my daughter's long time favorites are One Everything, Triops Has Three Eyes, High Five, Seven, Hotdog. I like "Apartment Four" quite a bit.

Also check out the For The Kids albums. Great stuff. I've Got To Be Clean is a fav as well as La La La Lemon by Bare Naked Ladies.
And finally, Singin' In The Bathtub by John Lithgow. Very funny, silly and cheerful. :)
Hope this helps. :)

The mom will already have a good selection of board books, I'm willing to bet. Most parents are happy to have something quiet to do with baby, and its okay if pages get torn - that's what tape is for. Teaching a child how to handle books early means you don't have to live through the destructive paper-tearing phase. I nannied for nearly 20 years; its all about warping their defenseless little minds with civilizing pre-sets. :)
Another choice is a CD or a book combo -- John Lithgow did one of the best, I've gifted this a dozen times, its a pick-me-up big band thing. https://www.amazon.com/Singin-Bathtub-John-Lithgow/dp/B00000I8A3#customerReviews
This has some wicked talent on every song, big name actors with really interesting voices, and the lyrics are by Boynton, so any kid with ears is going to be able to sing them within minutes. I know all these songs. There's a lot of style variety and there are chattering aardvarks, which is always a nice touch. https://www.amazon.com/Philadelphia-Chickens-Sandra-Boynton/dp/B0001ADB6Y/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=children+boynton&qid=1555922081&refinements=p_n_binding_browse-bin%3A387645011&rnid=387643011&s=music&sr=1-3#customerReviews
