However right here a colourful crew transforms the Tiny Desk into Yo Gabba GabbaLand! with all 5 of the Gabba mates of their full kind, led by the spirited Kammy Kam and backed by a five-piece band.

The reimagined present introduces new characters and concepts whereas sustaining the identical groovy sounds that make you wanna dance, irrespective of your age.
The fun-filled set options Yo Gabba Gabba! classics like “Occasion in My Tummy” and new cuts comparable to “The Orange Cat’s Particular Time Open air,” which features a shock go to from Thundercat — donning an orange cat swimsuit, in fact. This one is bound to please the little ones and your inside little one.
