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 K 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." Durbin worked in combination 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.

Early days saw the four Movers working every night after their children's bedtime, from 9 p.m. to midnight, writing songs, developing plot lines, and fine tuning the concept, including creating Knit Knots, Carla (who became Nina), Warehouse Mouse, as all as developing their gadgets.
