The Fresh Beat Band

- Season 1

(2009)

The Fresh Beat Band wants to do something special for their music teacher. Ms. Piccalo's birthday is coming up so they decide to replace the wallpaper in the classroom. While putting up the paper, Kiki and Twist accidentally get stuck together by the wallpaper paste. They try to continue working, but it is difficult so Shout and Marina have to figure out a way to get them unstuck and finish the job in time for Ms. Piccalo's birthday party.

While practicing for her drum solo for tonight's big performance, Marina breaks her drumset. The Fresh Beats must scramble to find whatever materials they can find to make a drum set - a trashcan, lids, pipes and even a table!

Reed has lost his dog, Banjo, and asks the Fresh Beats to help him with the search. They chase Banjo all over town, and he keeps slipping away at the last second. The Fresh Beats and Reed finally figure out that Banjo can be lured by music. Depending on whether they play their music fast or slow, Banjo will either move towards them, or away from them.

SHOUT is so excited to perform today that he's developed a case of loco legs! So The Fresh Beats come up with an ingenious plan that will enable them to perform together. They all do the loco legs dance!

The Fresh Beats are having trouble learning a dance that Kiki has choreographed. After a trip to the groovie smoothie, Melody teaches them that if you put it in a song, you can remember the steps a lot easier!

It's Tap Dance Day at Music School. Shout is excited, and practices his tap dancing skills on the way to class. However, he gets a little too into the dancing. Shout winds up kicking his shoes off his feet, and they land in a tree. Shout needs shoes to tap in, so Marina loans him her duck slippers.

Melody is introducing a new line of carrot juice flavored smoothies at her shop. She asks Marina to wear a bunny suit to help promote it. Marina doesn't really want to wear the bunny suit, because she just got a new dress she wanted to wear instead. She reluctantly agrees to wear the suit because Melody is a friend. To provide some moral support, Kiki, Shout, and Twist all dress as animals and come to the Groovy Smoothie to help out.

The Fresh Beats are going to pick different instruments to play at music school today! Marina is going to play the xylophone, Shout is going to play the trombone, Kiki is going to play the harp, and Twist wants to play everything!

The Fresh Beats are deciding what song to play for their next concert. Twist wants to play something that goes really fast. He starts running around the apartments, and accidentally breaks Marina's drum. Shout, Kiki, and Marina try to convince Twist that he needs to slow down. Twist comes up with a different plan. He turns his room into a bouncy house. This way he can bounce around really fast and not worry about breaking anything. The plan was working until Twist breaks Marina's drum a second time.

It's too hot to practice and the Fresh Beats cool off with a smoothie. Melody leaves them in charge of the shop and pretty soon they're making ice-cold smoothies that freeze everyone, which turns into a freeze dance!

Kiki gets the idea to start a delivery service on her roller skates, and finds herself way over her head in need of help from her friends.

There's a Talent Show at school and Twist wants to do magic tricks. The others want to sing and dance, especially when the tricks don't work. In the end, the Fresh Beats perform... with Twist's magic tricks!

Kiki and Shout have to sing a duet for Music School. They are having trouble picking a song, because each one has a different idea of what they want to sing. Kiki wants to sing an opera song, while Shout wants to sing a rock "n" roll song. Twist and Marina have to figure out a way to help their friends come up with a compromise.

The Fresh Beats are leading the school parade, with uniforms and marching band instruments! They have trouble marching in a straight line and morph into a hip-hop marching band and march, and dance, Fresh Beat style!

It's the Moonlight block party and everyone is decorating the street. The Fresh Beat Band start their show and all the lights go out! They make glow stick costumes and the party becomes a glow-in-the-dark extravaganza!

Shout gets a bugle in his favorite box of cereal. He plays with it all day, and even into the night. Shout knows it is time to go to sleep, but he can't help himself. He keeps playing his new bugle. Kiki, Marina, and Twist all want to go to sleep, but Shout's bugle playing is driving them nuts. The three of them have to work together to figure out a way to get Shout to go to sleep.

Twist is practicing his rapping skills. When he can't find anything that rhymes with the word music, he accidentally loses his voice. Kiki, Marina, and Shout console Twist, and try to help him figure out a way to get his voice back. They decide to try finding a word that rhymes with music on their own.

The Fresh Beat Band is getting ready to play some country music. They head to the Good Note Music Store to get some country music instruments from Reed. Kiki, Shout, and Marina pick their items out right away. Twist has trouble finding one for himself. He keeps picking different instruments, but none of them have a country music sound to them. The day of the performance arrives, and Twist has nothing to play, and the other Fresh Beats don't want to perform without him. Melody and Reed come up with the idea of Twist being the square dance caller.

It's Clean & Green Day and the Fresh Beats are cleaning the street! But SHOUT would rather play music, so they all build a bubble making music cleaning machine, using discarded woodwind instrument parts they got from Reed!

The Fresh Beat Band is getting ready to perform at a Hawaiian Luau. After picking up their instruments from Reed, they start practicing. Marina starts to get worried when her hips start shaking and the rest of her body starts dancing without her in control of her own body. She tries to figure out how to control it, but it keeps happening every time she hears Hawaiian music. At the Luau, Melody explains to the group that Marina is dancing the hula, and that her body has a story to tell.
