Imagination Movers bring their unique style of kid-friendly pop rock to New York City, and to Disney Junior. Based in New Orleans, friends Rich Collins, Scott Durbin, Dave Poche and Scott “Smitty” Smith decided to put together a band and build a children’s television show. The program offers catchy, upbeat songs with lyrics that speak to young children, and contemporary beats that keep everyone else interested. As a result, Imagination Movers has become a national sensation for children of all ages, selling more than 250,000 CDs and DVDs and appearing on national daytime shows like The View and Good Morning America. They even grabbed a Daytime Emmy Award for outstanding original song on a children’s show. Since then, the group has played shows at the Best Buy Theater in Times Square, as well as sold out shows domestically and in Canada.
