Ants on a Log

Ants on a Log makes music for children and other childlike people, songfully advocating for positivity, social justice, and silliness. In their off-stage lives, Julie Be (they/them) is a music therapist and Anya Rose (she/her) is an elementary science teacher. Their powers combined make for smart and socially conscious folk, a delight for children and adults of all ages.

The Ants' musical "Curious: Think Outside the Pipeline!" is based on the true story of Philadelphia’s fight for clean air, and inspired by the youth-led climate change movement. In 2019 the “Curious” Soundtrack won a Parents’ Choice Award, and in 2021 the Ants released the puppet-powered "Curious" movie. In 2020, Julie Be produced the "Trans & Nonbinary Kids Mix," a compilation of songs from artists all over the gender map that gained national acclaim as a landmark album in the world of intersectional media for children.

Since 2014, families have relied on Ants on a Log for their ongoing social justice soundtrack, full of harmony and humor.
