LA is a haven for arts and entertainment, so it should come as no surprise that there are dozens of amazing local bands just for kids—and for their music savvy parents. You shouldn’t have to choose between listening to the  Frozen soundtrack for 2 years straight and precociously playlisting pre-teen pop to tiny tots. So don’t! Check out our favorite stars of the local scene; we guarantee you’ll want to jam to these LA kids bands just as much as your mini DJs.

 

Michal “Peanut” Karmi

Listening to the cotton candy sweet voice of Michal “Peanut” Karmi feels a little bit like enjoying a sticky popsicle on a hot sunny day. Her whimsical, ukele-backed sound lends itself perfectly to songs about pickles and, the one thing everyone in the world can relate to, belly buttons.
