Welcome to the official site of the galaxy's most animated band! The Shake Ups play power-pop songs about cartoons and pop culture. Features of this site include music, videos, tour dates, merchandise and all the latest news!
Our album Meddling Kids is a Saturday morning cartoon-fueled power-pop extravaganza! It was inspired by a variety of classic animated series and features songs such as “Meddling Kids,” “Scare You,” “Perfect Date” and “(Laughing in the) Pizza Rain.”
We recently released a new promotional mini-album, Cartoon Hits Vol. 1, which collects a variety of classic cartoon themes! Check out a playlist featuring a few of the tracks, then grab your copy while supplies last here!
We have also produced two seasons of an original musical fiction podcast series, Ignore City, written by Ed Cho with new music and voice work by The Shake Ups. The first eight episodes of the series are streaming, or you can check out a playlist via our Youtube Channel (and don’t forget to Subscribe)! This spring will see the release of Ignore City Soundtrack Vol. 1, which collects many of the new songs onto one album!
Our music is available via iTunes, Amazon, Kunaki and the band Web Store!
