Guru Studio Teams Up with Timbaland for Big Blue

Guru Studio has partnered with Grammy-winning music producer Timbaland and his Beatclub team to produce the theme song for Big Blue.

“Trying something different is what it’s all about, and being a part of a kids’ show that’s so unique is as different as it gets for me,” Timbaland said. “I’m looking forward to speaking to the next generation and helping to make a difference.”

Created by Gyimah Gariba and developed with CBC Kids, Big Blue follows the adventures of sibling underwater explorers Lettie and Lemo and their quirky submarine crew, as well as the magical ocean fairy stowaway Bacon Berry. The animated series, aimed at kids aged 5 to 9, will make its world premiere on CBC Kids on December 4.

Big Blue is produced by Guru Studio. The series will premiere exclusively in Canada on CBC Kids and will be available to stream on CBC Gem, CBC’s streaming service. Additional international broadcasters on board include Nickelodeon in the U.K., ABC Me in Australia, CTC Kids in Russia and NRK in Norway.
