The Imagination Movers are an American children's band formed in New Orleans, Louisiana, in 2003. The line-up includes drummer and multi-instrumentalist Rich Collins, keyboardist and banjo/mandolin player Scott Durbin, bassist Dave Poche, and guitarist Scott "Smitty" Smith. Members of the group were longtime friends and neighbors.

They started with the four members seeing a need to encourage creativity in children, provide positive male role models, and create music and content that "spoke to them, not down to them." Scott Durbin worked with the other Movers to create a live-action TV show that was a combination of shows like Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, Captain Kangaroo, and The Monkees, with the music they enjoyed, like Beastie Boys, The Police, and U2.
