Sprout TV star, Sesame Street songwriter, and Grammy Award winner Tim Kubart and the Space Cadets will kick off his summer concert of family concerts with a show at Flushing Town Hall in New York. He and the band will also perform at the Paramount Hudson Valley Theater in July and on the Kidzapalooza stage at Lollapalooza in August. Tour dates include:

Kubart won a Grammy for his album Home in 2016. He has worked on numerous family music projects, most notably "Sesame Street." His first Sesame composition "We Can All Be Friends" (written alongside long-time producer Dominic Fallacaro) is the introduction of Julia, the first Muppet with autism. Tim's debut children's picture book "Oopsie-Do!" will be published by HarperCollins in 2018.
Kubart hosts, produces, and writes the only live morning show for preschoolers, Sunny Side Up, on NBCUniversal's Sprout Channel (which transforms into Universal Kids in September). With his co-host Chica the Chicken, Tim sings songs, performs sketches, and celebrates everyday moments for a national audience of kids and their caregivers each day. "Sunny Side Up" earned an Emmy Nomination in 2016 and 2017 for "Outstanding Preschool Series," and the cable channel won the Cynopsis Kids Imagination Award for "Best Preschool Series." Kubart is also known around the world as the energetic and enigmatic Tambourine Guy from the viral music collective Postmodern Jukebox.
In other news, Kubart also releases a newly remixed single "Superhero," featuring fellow Sunny Side Up host Carly Ciarrocchi. He debuted the remix in a live session at Billboard HQ in New York last week.
