About

Jump 5 are the ebullient sound of bubblegum popping. Tailor-made for radio play, they were created specifically as marketable boy/girl band, the new force to call upon when the Disney Channel needs an upbeat theme song. They not only skyrocketed to their intended success, but also quite surprisingly hit repeatedly on the Christian Adult Contemporary radio charts. Already a product of crazy mixes and meticulous production, they've made poppy re-vamped hits of yesterday's feel-good classics, including "We Are Family," which became Radio Disney's theme for its Family Pledge Initiative. These kids exude an infectious, school's-out-for-summer vibe. They're so cute, it's a little scary, but you couldn't knock 'em if you tried.
