ELI5: Why does my son's stutter go away when he talks in an accent?

My son has a moderate stutter. When he talks in an accent  - and his Scottish is on point, let me tell you - his stutter goes away completely. He is 13 but wants me to ELI5 to him.  Help me?

It's the same reason that James Earl Jones (yes, the famous actor) doesn't have one.

Singing, and well . . . accents. They both use the same part of the brain, that regulates speech patterns and rhythm.

Because he isn't using the part of the brain that natural wants to be used while speaking, he sort of "bypasses" the stutter. And allows him to speak normally.

James Earl Jones had a horrible stutter that made him almost voluntarily mute. One day a teacher/therapist suggested that he take up singing, to him it sounded ridiculous, but it helped him work past it.
