"The Fresh Beat Band is back on the road to give kids a chance to see their favorite rock stars live in concert," says Doug Cohn, SVP, Music, Nickelodeon. "This reimagined, high-energy production features the band's biggest hits, never-before-performed songs, and fun surprises that will deliver an unforgettable experience for families."

Nickelodeon is currently in production on "Fresh Beat Band of Spies," a brand-new animated preschool series based on the hit live-action show, "The Fresh Beat Band." In the new series, Kiki (Yvette Gonzalez-Nacer), Marina (Tara Perry), Twist (Jon Beavers) and Shout (Thomas Hobson) are bandmates and also undercover spies. The pop band uses their individual talents and the coolest transforming spy gadgets to outwit a goofy cast of bad guys and solve wild and wacky mysteries. The series, which teaches problem-solving to preschoolers, is created by Nadine van der Velde and Scott Kraft ("The Fresh Beat Band"). "Fresh Beat Band of Spies" will premiere in 2015.

The Fresh Beat Band soundtracks - "The Fresh Beat Band: Music From The Hit TV Show" and "The Fresh Beat Band: More Music From The Hit TV Show Vol 2.0" - are currently available on iTunes and in stores everywhere.

In each episode of "The Fresh Beat Band" preschoolers sing and dance along as they help The Fresh Beat Band solve everyday challenges. Preschoolers learn the fundamentals of music such as melody, rhythm, tempo and performance styles and the importance of friendship, working together, and respecting each other's differences. Ne-Yo, Justin Bieber, Jason Mraz, Wayne Brady and Sarah Chalke have all hung out with the Fresh Beats and the group is beloved by many celebrity parents.
