Jeannine Hodson served as producer, and Chuck Sheetz served as the primary director, with Ian Freedman and Mike Sheill respectively directing the final two episodes. The writing staff included Ryan, Hadley Klein, Kevin Sullivan, David Lewman, Tom Krajewski, Gary Janetti, Analise McNeill, Anne Fryer, and the duos of Evan Gore and Heather Lombard, and Andy Rheingold and Ray DeLaurentis.

Plot

The Fresh Beat Band, now a group of spies, solve wacky mysteries in their town using their individual talents and cool gadgets.

Characters

Main

  • Kiki (voiced by Yvette Gonzalez-Nacer) is the band's lead guitarist and lead singer who owns a local hair salon. She has a jetpack and a scooter.
  • Shout (voiced by Thomas Hobson) is the athletic keyboardist and leader of the spy team who is also the lifeguard at a nearby swimming pool. Whenever Reed sends the spies on a mission, Shout says "Time to spy it up!"
  • Marina (voiced by Tara Perry) is the brainy drummer of the spy team who is the chemist for a cupcake bakery. Her catchphrase is "Brainstorm!" which she says whenever she has an idea.
  • Twist (voiced by Jon Beavers) is the comedic disc jockey of the team whose day job is as the manager of the Pet Daycare Center. He uses a pogo stick as a vehicle.
  • Bo Monkey (voiced by Tom Kenny) is Twist's best friend, a monkey who helps him operate the pet center. He does not speak, but communicates through monkey noises that reflect his emotions.
  • Reed (voiced by Tom Kenny) is the team's "gadget guy" who wears glasses. He tends to suddenly appear out of nowhere, due to hiding in or behind various objects, which startles the other team members. He is the only recurring character from the original series to return.
  • Commissioner Goldstar (voiced by Keith Silverstein) is the friendly but hapless chief of police. He appears after the spies complete their missions, usually to congratulate the team on their successes.

Recurring

  • Lily (voiced by Heaven White) is Commissioner Goldstar's niece and a good friend of the Fresh Beats. She has a pet dog named Goldie and plays on Shout's baseball team.
  • Lil Piggie is a pig with a hot pink mohawk and one of the many animals living at Twist's pet center. He is a friend of the Fresh Beats.
  • Three Direction is a parody of the band One Direction.

Villains

  • Champ Von Champ Von Winnerchamp (also voiced by Tom Kenny) is a muscular recurring villain who steals and cheats for various objects, such as trophies, wrestling belts and party supplies. He speaks with a German accent and is assisted by his own cheer squad for stealing stuff.
  • Captain Arrrgh (also voiced by Tom Kenny) is a singing pirate who steals treasure with the help of his chicken, Poulet, and his second-in-command, First Mate.
  • Yi-Haw (voiced by Kate Higgins) is a cowgirl and outlaw who hopes to surpass her outlaw ancestor by stealing buildings from all over town.
  • Squee Z. Dumpkins (voiced by Tara Strong) is a famous internet celebrity known for her cuteness.

Production

The series was first announced in March 2014.[4] In August of the same year, it was announced that Nickelodeon was currently in production on the show and it was slated for a 2015 release.[5] From November 2014 until February 2015, several songs from Fresh Beat Band of Spies episodes were performed as part of "The Fresh Beat Band: Greatest Hits Live" tour; products such as posters and T-shirts featuring the cartoon Fresh Beat characters were sold at these concerts.[6]
