For any family road trip this spring break or summer, a rock band and Emmy-winning Disney Junior TV series is creating the perfect music playlist for any family adventure.

The Imagination Movers' new song titled "Road Trip" from their upcoming album is the perfect addition to any family playlist this summer. Plus, thanks to the University of Louisiana at Lafayette Chamber Singers, some of the kiddie songs start off with a choir, according to a news release.

The song explores the beloved tradition of the family road trip, from pastoral landscapes seen from the backseat to games played in the car, like counting license plates from different states.

Imagination Movers is a band that plays rock music for kids.

Many of the upbeat songs resemble the four New Orleans friends' – Rich Collins, Scott Durbin, Dave Poche and Scott “Smitty” Smith – idea to give kids music that speaks to them, not down to them. So, they started collaborating after their kids’ bedtimes to write songs and brainstorm ideas about a children’s television show.

In the past three years, the Movers entered the Top 10 of Billboard’s Kid Albums Chart. This year, the Imagination Movers celebrate their 20th anniversary.

See the Movers at Festival International de Louisiane at 5:15 p.m. April 26 on the Fais Do Do Stage.
