Guests are Awesome

Since the start of its first season in August 2007 Yo Gabba Gabba! has garnered a reputation for having some of the most amusing music segments on television… not just for youngins, but for kids of all ages: Biz Markie and Devo’s Mark Mothersbaugh have regular segments on the show; animation sequences have used music by Low, Jason Lytle (formerly of Grandaddy), Enon, Of Montreal, The Bird and the Bee and The Apples in Stereo; and previous guests include The Shins, Elijah Wood, Jack Black, Cornelius, The Ting Tings, Mates Of State, The Roots and MGMT. The third season has continued the tradition of awesome musical guests on awesome children’s programming that dates back to the 1970s… but taken it to another level with Dr. Dog, Weezer, Black Moth Super Rainbow, Of Montreal, The Apples in Stereo’s Robert Schneider, Devo and – on November 5, 2010 – The Flaming Lips.
