THE EDITED PRESS RELEASE: “Yo Gabba GabbaLand! is the much-anticipated revival of the Emmy-nominated cultural phenomenon Yo Gabba Gabba! The soundtrack to Season 1 will include appearances by Anderson .Paak, Portugal. The Man, Thundercat, mxmtoon, Local Natives, Lucius, Kurt Vile, Betty Who, Twin Shadow, Ty Segall, The Linda Lindas, Big Daddy Kane, Claud, Cory Wong and Antwaun Stanley, Dayglow, Miyavi, Paul Williams, Prestyn Smith, Reggie Watts, ROMderful, The Drums and The Interrupters.
The first single from the set is The Linda Lindas’ contribution, I’m So Happy to Be Little, an explosive, bite-sized bit of raucous rock ’n’ roll, written and produced by the Yo Gabba Gabba! team. I’m So Happy to Be Little is the perfect taste of a soundtrack that will delight children and adults alike. The song appears in the third episode of season one, Little, in which the Gabba Friends shrink to the size of shrimps and learn that we’re all “just the right size.”
“We’ve gone from being smaller, younger kids who watched YoGabba Gabba! to actually becoming characters in the show, which is so surreal!” said The Linda Lindas. “Singing a fun song about being little is perfect and something that a lot of us can relate to. Even though we’re bigger now, we haven’t grown out of Yo Gabba Gabba!, and neither should you.”
Co-creators and executive producers Scott Schultz and Christian Jacobs said: “We couldn’t be more excited to bring more Gabba to the world! Music has always been the heart and soul of Yo Gabba Gabba!, and Yo Gabba GabbaLand! will be no different. The amazing amount of support and interest from the music community we’ve had all these years later fills us with so much joy — it’s going to be so much fun to pass that energy on to kids, families, and existing Gabba fans… Hope you’re ready to dancey dance — because this soundtrack is one giant celebration of awesomeness!”
