Recently our family had a chance to see the Fresh Beat Band LIVE in Concert at the beginning of their Great Hits Live Tour! The live tour of Nickelodeon’s awesome preschool band made an appearance at NJPAC! Now, don't worry if you missed them, they will be back in NJ in December and NYC in January! The Fresh Beat Band which consists of Kiki (Yvette Gonzalez-Nacer), Shout (Thomas Hobson), Marina (Tara Perry) and Twist (Jon Beavers) bring their hit TV series to life by teaching music appreciation to children and allowing them to express themselves through movement, song and instrumental music. In the hit musical sitcom, original pop songs are set with preschool-friendly lyrics. Marina, Kiki, Twist and Shout are the Fresh Beats. They are four best band mates who go to music school together and love to sing and dance. From the moment the Fresh Beats wake up, just about any situation can lead to a fun-filled, full-blown, song-and-dance performance that the entire family will enjoy.

We did see The Fresh Beat Band a few years ago and loved them, so we could not wait to see them again. Even though they are a preschool band, I did see quite a few kids my daughter's age of about seven there. Now, let's get to the show! WOW! From the moment the Fresh Beat Band hits the stage you can just feel the energy. The kids absolutely go wild with singing and dancing! The aisles fill up, the kids are on their feet and the moms and dads cannot help but join into the fun! What an incredible show. It's as if the Fresh Beat Band is talking and singing directly to your child. They make total eye contact and even visit the audience. They are completely kid friendly! Your child will LOVE this show and so will you. If you watch the show with your kids, you already know all the songs. This was proven at NJPAC with everyone in the audience singing along!
Did I mention there were huge inflatable beach balls? Oh yes, those were tossed into the audience for some awesome fun play! The kids went wild as the balls passed back and forth. So much fun! There also was a ton of confetti and streamers that made the crowd go . crazy. Some of our personal favorite songs included, Just Like a Rockstar, Reach For The Sky,Freeze Dance, Friend Like You, and Go Bananas! NaNaNaNaNaNa-Let's Go Bananas! and of course, Great Day!
