NEW ORLEANS , June 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- On June 18 , the Imagination Movers will release " Blue Skies ," the 11th album from the Emmy-winning rockers. The New Orleans -based group will soon celebrate 22 years of creating music for kids and parents to enjoy together. The 12 tracks oscillate from silly to sincere while featuring the Movers' usual catchy choruses, inspired wordplay, and robust pop-rock arrangements.
Boosted by their eponymous Disney+ television show, the Movers continue to hold the banner for quality indie children's music that can exist on a playlist alongside bands like Wet Leg, Twenty-One Pilots, Circa Waves, and Middle Kids. The new album's first single, "Ice Cream Sandwich," is a pop-punk confection with a call-and-response section as sweet as its subject matter. Propelled by a vocal choir, mandolin, uke, and acoustic guitar, "Road Trip" is a sonic postcard evoking feelings of driving down curvy country highways as the sun peeks over the horizon.
"Summer Campers" is a "shout-along" song, perfect for kids and counselors to chant during rowdy assemblies. Add songs like "Jetpacks," "Cuckoo Bird," and "Big Feelings" to the mix and you get a collection that reveals a group still operating at the peak of its powers. The project began in 2002 in New Orleans .
Six years later, the "Imagination Movers" television series began its three-season international run on the Disney Channel, helping the band cultivate a global audience via the airwa.
