Undoubtedly the coolest kids show on the planet, Nickelodeon’s Yo Gabba Gabba debuted their second season in the US this week and they’ve once again called upon a rather sparkling array of cutting edge indie, electro and hip hop artists to lend a hand.

Hosted by the delightfully fruity DJ Lance Rock, the second season of Yo Gabba Gabba will feature MGMT, Ladytron, Datarock, The Ting Tings, Mix Master Mike of The Beastie Boys, Chromeo and The Roots. Biz Markie will also reprise his role for the ‘Biz’s Beat Of The Day’ segment. If it was a music festival you’d be lining up for a ticket!

Not just a success story in America, Yo Gabba Gabba is so far ranked as Australia’s #1 TV show for preschool aged kids (0-4 years) in 2008, beating out gazillionaires The Wiggles for the top spot. The Yo Gabba Gabba season 1 DVD is released in November, and it’d make the perfect Christmas present for any younger siblings, nieces, nephews, cousins (or kids of your own, if you’re at that lifestage!), so keep it in mind to give them a kick-start on some quality music.
