Creator Q&A
Tell us about yourself
We are Jim and Rob Gardner, brothers from the United States with a passion for creating entertaining and educational content for kids. Our journey began when Jim's truck-obsessed twins inspired us to make videos that celebrate the fascinating world of trucks. Combining Jim's storytelling skills with Rob's musical talents, we launched the Twenty Trucks YouTube channel and have since reached millions of families worldwide.
What inspired you to make this title(s)?
The idea for Truck Tunes was born when we noticed a gap in children’s media—there weren’t many engaging, truck-focused songs and videos that kids could enjoy repeatedly. Inspired by Jim's twins’ love for trucks, we created content that combined fun, educational lyrics with footage of real work machines in action. Over time, this passion project grew into a beloved series that resonates with both kids and parents.
"We hope to spark curiosity in kids while providing parents with quality entertainment they can enjoy alongside their little ones."
Who do you imagine listening to your audio?
Our primary audience is young children who are fascinated by trucks and work vehicles. However, parents and educators also appreciate our content for its educational value and family-friendly appeal. We hope to spark curiosity in kids while providing parents with quality entertainment they can enjoy alongside their little ones.
Is there anything different about making audio for Yoto listeners?
Making our audio content available on Yoto allows our existing and new fans to focus on the lyrics and music in a unique way. Yoto’s platform enables us to connect with children in a more personal and imaginative format, fostering creativity and learning through music. For years our fans have asked us to make our Truck Tunes available on Yoto. We’re excited to finally be here!
What’s next?
Initially, we are launching Truck Tunes on Yoto with volumes 1 and 2, featuring a total of 20 songs. We have written and produced over 60 tunes to date. As we develop our relationship with fans on Yoto, we hope to continue to release more titles in the near future.
New to Yoto?
Our carefully connected speakers put kids in control of their listening, learning and play. No cameras. No microphones. No ads.
Creator FAQs
Who are the Creators?
Our Creators are independent makers of music and spoken word content for children and families. Some have established audiences in other places, while others are beginning their audio publishing journey with Yoto. We put out a public call to join this initiative at the start of 2024.
Each of our creators have their own Creator Profiles where you can read more about them and their cards. Just click on their name on their card store page to find out more.
How can I become a Creator?

How is this different from the free audio on Yoto Space?
Open Mic on Yoto Space is where we nurture those creators who may be just starting out or wanting to experiment with a new title. It's a friendly community where they have space to share content for free, build an audience and get feedback. We are delighted to see several creators make the leap from there to become Creators on the Yoto Store, where they can now monetise their work.
