The Pop Ups are veteran kids' rockers Jacob Stein (the creator and driving force behind Tribeca's Bim Bom Musicfest class) and Jason Rabinowitz (auteur of indie-pop sensation The Bloodsugars, and co-writer/producer of 3 Little Maestros albums). Outside Voices began as a personal challenge for the two Brooklyn musicians. Looking to make something that their friends could enjoy with their young families, the duo decided to write and record the album in a week in their bedroom studio. They began to distribute demos to friends, and after an overwhelming positive initial response from parents and kids, they decided to self release the album. Time Out New York Kids named Outside Voices one of the best kids' albums of 2010.
