Warner Music Group’s Arts Music division has entered into a worldwide partnership with Fred Rogers Productions for the animated series Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood. New music from the show will soon be released under the deal while existing songs will be made immediately available across a broader set of digital services both in the U.S. and worldwide.
Based on the fictional Neighborhood of Make-Believe from Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood follows the daily adventures of 4-year-old Daniel Tiger (son of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood’s Daniel Striped Tiger) and his friends Katerina Kittycat (daughter of Henrietta Pussycat), Miss Elaina (daughter of Lady Elaine Fairchilde and Music Man Stan), O the Owl (nephew of X the Owl), and Prince Wednesday (King Friday and Queen Sara Saturday’s youngest son). Through each adventure, kids are taught valuable lessons and practical skills such as managing sibling rivalry and missing loved ones, tidying up, and coping with accidents, all with the help of strategy songs such as “Clean Up, Pick Up, Put Away” and “Use Your Words and Say How You Feel.”
Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood was created by Blue’s Clues co-producer Angela C. Santomero in 2012 and is produced by Fred Rogers Productions and 9 Story Media Group. The show will return for its fifth season this summer on PBS Kids.
