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.

 

Andrew & Polly

If your favorite indie pop group composed the soundtracks to Saturday morning cartoons the result would be the happy, imaginative sound of Andrew & Polly. This husband and wife duo dishes up quirky, light-as-air, pop songs perfect for junior hipsters. Your little ones will love their silly lyrics and their throwback cover songs will make you feel nostalgic for your own childhood.
