Netflix\u2019 Beatles-inspired children\u2019s series\u00a0Beat Bugs<\/em>, which is coproduced by Vancouver\u2019s Thunderbird, has been renewed for a second season.\u00a0
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

The announcement was made by the show\u2019s creator and writer Josh Wakely at the\u00a0Netflix Television Critics Association panel on Wednesday. The first season of the animated series lands on Netflix on Aug. 3, while the second season has been given a Nov. 18 premiere date.<\/p>\n

As well, an expanded roster of artists was announced for both seasons of the series, with\u00a0Rod Stewart, Jennifer Hudson, Aloe Blacc, Robbie Williams, Frances, The Lumineers and Tori Kelly joining previously announced artists such as\u00a0Eddie Vedder, Pink,\u00a0James Bay, Sia, The Shins, Of Monsters and Men and Chris Cornell.<\/p>\n

Netflix previously inked a\u00a0worldwide rights deal with Sony\/ATV Music Publishing, which allowed\u00a0Beat Bugs\u00a0<\/em>to record covers of Beatles songs from the\u00a0Lennon\/McCartney \u201cNorthern Songs\u201d catalogue.<\/p>\n

The series is produced by Wakely\u2019s Australia- and U.S.-based production company,\u00a0Grace: A Storytelling Company, in conjunction with\u00a0Thunderbird and\u00a0Sydney-headquartered\u00a0Beyond Screen Production.<\/p>\n

The series centres on the lives of five bugs, who live in an over-sized backyard. Beatles songs are woven into the narrative of the animated series, which was initially announced in February.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
