Alphabet Rockers is a hip-hop children's music group focused on diversity, equity, inclusion, and advocacy. "The Movement," won a Grammy Award for Best Children's Album. Previous albums "The Love" (2020) and "Rise Shine #Woke" (2018) also received Grammy nominations. The music group has performed at the Kennedy Center, Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture, Lollapalooza, and San Francisco Pride, among other venues.
History
Alphabet Rockers were founded in 2007 by Kaitlin McGaw and Tommy Soulati Shepherd. The primary group features McGaw and Shepherd along with Maya Fleming, Kali de Jesus, Tommy Shepherd III, Samara Atkins, and Roza Do. The artists collaborate with people of all ages and backgrounds who write, produce and record songs that address racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, and transphobia. Their album, "The Movement," won a Grammy Award for "Best Children's Album" in 2023 and they have won two Parents' Choice Awards. The group has performed at the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture, the Perelman Performing Arts Center, and the Oakland Museum of California.
In 2018, their album "Rise Shine #Woke" was nominated for a Grammy award for "Best Children's Album" and in 2020 they received a Grammy nomination in the same category for their album, "The Love."
In 2020, Alphabet Rockers created, "We Got Work to Do," an anti-racism curriculum that uses music and dance as tools which was featured on CBS This Morning and YouTube Kids. In 2021, they were featured on the Grammy nominated album, "All One Tribe," (with 1 Tribe Collective). In 2022, Alphabet Rockers released the book, "You Are Not Alone," (illustrated by Ashley Evans), which includes six diverse characters taking turns sharing their experiences of prejudice, identity struggles, and their desire to be seen, understood, and respected. Kirkus Reviews called it, "Exuberantly affirming and infectiously joyful."
In 2024, Alphabet Rockers were featured on the Fabulous Show with Fay and Fluffy's in season two's episode, "I Love Peace," and their original song, "Whynot A Christmas Carol," was featured in the American Conservatory Theater's holiday musical, "A Whynot Christmas Carol."
Founders
Kaitlin McGaw began writing poetry, singing, and became involved with musical theater in high school. She cites influences as Nikki Giovanni and Maya Angelou. After graduating from Harvard University with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Afro-American Studies, she moved to the San Francisco Bay Area.
