With over 100 million views and a legacy of creating joyful, multilingual music for children, BASHO & FRIENDS today announced the release of his ambitious new album, "A Way to Be," dropping today. 
This collection of genre-blending, emotionally rich songs is designed to help kids thrive in the world as it is.
Backed by a resume that includes songwriting for an Emmy Award-winning season of "Sesame Street," creative collaborations with Sesame Studios, and recent work as a scriptwriter for the PBS animated series "Skillsville," Basho brings a rare mix of educational depth and musical soul to his work. "A Way to Be" is his most personal and conceptual project to date, offering a core lesson for kids everywhere: believe in each other, keep trying, and grow together.
"So much of my career has focused on academic readiness for kids—counting, colors, and letters," says Basho. "But this album is about something deeper: learning about living fully every day. From celebrating kindness and learning how to bounce back from failure, to an anthem about how to show up for your friends, these are lessons about growing up and growing together."
A Unique Sound and a Universal Message
