Nick Balaban and Mike Rubin compose and perform the utterly fantastic music on Blue's Clues. Nick and Mike used to be (are?) members of New York R & B band Uncle Hoy. The web site looks pretty old, so I assume it was a previous venture.

More recently, Nick is a member of Klezska!, a klezmer/ska/reggae/jazz band, with free tracks available at Download.com. If anyone has information on the extra-Blue adventures of Michael Rubin, please let me know.
