Kidz Bop, the #1 music group for children in the United States, is embarking on their 30-city national “Dream Big, Sing Loud” tour and will make a stop at the Gallo Center at 7 p.m. on July 27.  

The Kidz Bop Kids—Matt Martinez, Grant Knoche, Bredia Santoro, Ashlynn Chong and Jayna Brown—range in age from 10 to 12 years old.  They perform ‘kid-friendly’ versions of songs that charted high on the Billboard Magazine Hot 100 or received heavy airplay from contemporary hit radio stations.  Lyrical edits are made to the songs so that they are more appropriate for children.  

The Kidz Bop Kids were Billboard Magazine’s #1 Kids Album Artist of 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013.  Their most recent album, “Kidz Bop 25,” debuted at #3 on the Billboard Top 200 chart.  They will release “Kidz Bop 26” later this month.

Tickets for the show range from $25 to $45. A $45 ticket includes meeting and having photos taken with the performers prior to the show. 

Tickets may be purchased online at www.galloarts.org, by calling 338-2100 or from the Gallo Center ticket office at 1000 I Street in downtown Modesto.
