Walt Disney Records Releases New Imagination Movers CD, Juice Box Heroes, on March 18

February 28th, 2008

Disney Channel is set to debut three new music videos from the world’s first alternative rock band for preschoolers, the New Orleans-based Imagination Movers, beginning SATURDAY, MARCH 8. The videos are a precursor to Disney Channel’s new “Imagination Movers” series in production in New Orleans for premiere later this year. Both the videos and the new series will introduce viewers to the band’s energetic rock and roll style of music, and encourage creative problem solving skills for preschoolers. On March 18, Walt Disney Records releases the definitive introduction to the Imagination Movers with a collection of songs entitled Juice Box Heroes. Tracks from the three new music videos – “Can You Do It,” “Calling All Movers” and “Numbers in a Bag” – are included on Juice Box Heroes, as are more than half a dozen songs from the new “Imagination Movers” series. A new studio album will follow later in the year. The quartet started writing music for their own children and went on to perform nationwide in high-energy, interactive rock/hip-hop concerts. Their funky, catchy songs, which have won over critics, parents and kids alike, are heard on satellite radio where they’ve topped the charts. They’ve won multiple national music awards and were named a “Parenting Pick” by Parenting Magazine. On April 26 they will make their fifth appearance at the world-renowned New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, where they will perform songs from Juice Box Heroes and the forthcoming “Imagination Movers” series on one of the festival’s main stages. Imagination Movers are Rich Collins, a former journalist and father of four young children; Scott Durbin, a former award-winning teacher and father of two young children; Dave Poche, an architect and father of two young children; and Scott “Smitty” Smith, a New Orleans firefighter who was a member of the Hurricane Katrina search-and-rescue team. Playhouse Disney, seen in a daily programming block on Disney Channel U.S. and on ten Playhouse Disney channels around the world, encourages preschoolers to imagine and learn through original series, short-form and acquired programming that includes song, movement and entertainment. Guided by an established curriculum, Playhouse Disney supports multiple areas of child development: physical, emotional, social and cognitive; thinking and creative skills, as well as moral and ethical development through carefully constructed themes, storylines and endearing characters. Walt Disney Records is part of the Disney Music Group, the recorded music and music publishing arm of the Walt Disney Company. Juice Box Heroes Track List:
