Characters

Main

There are four monsters that make up the Happy Monster Band: Ink, Bluz, L.O., and Frred. Each of the monster's name reflects its color: Ink's signature color is pink, Bluz's is blue, L.O.'s is yellow and Frred's is red. They were designed by Don Carter. All four of the band members are children, but their singing voices are those of the members of the band Tally Hall. In the UK version, children's voices are used for the singing portions.

  • Frred (voiced by Rob Cantor (singing voice) and Kurt Doss (speaking voice)) is one of the band's lead singers and plays a purple electric guitar. While Ink may appear to be the leader, many fans tend to regard Frred as the actual leader.
  • L.O. (voiced by Zubin Sedghi (singing voice) and Trevor Gagnon (speaking voice), Nathan Simpson in the UK version) is the other lead singer. L.O. is yellow and plays a green bass guitar with four strings. He is the only monster in the band that goes against traditional thinking, preferring to paint and write poetry instead of scaring. He is considered to be a shy introvert. He is the oldest member in the band.
  • Bluz (voiced by Joe Hawley (singing voice), Jonah Lees (Direct from Monsterland), and Jake T. Austin (World tour) (speaking voices)) is the band's keyboardist, is blue and has four legs. His keyboard is magenta and has twelve black keys. Bluz often contradicts L.O.'s opinions, stating that monsters should scare and not care about art. During the World Tour, Bluz knows a little bit about foreign languages, which makes him appear unintelligent. However, he shows kindness and empathy for others. He can also be very friendly. He is the youngest member of the band.
  • Ink (voiced by Tara Sands (singing voice) and Hannah Leigh (speaking voice)) is the band's drummer. She has three eyes and is pink. Her drums can glow either pink, magenta or purple. Unlike the other band members, Ink only sings during choruses. However she has a solo verse in "Do the Monster Stomp". During the World Tour, she carries a globe that shows where the band is and is fluent in several languages.

Recurring

The first season introduces several characters.

  • Roc and Raoul (voiced by Yuri Lowenthal and Sam Riegel, respectively) are two-headed purple monster brothers and are the show's hosts. They speak in rhyme, except while backstage, and are also present in season two (World Tour).
  • La, Dee, and Da are the show's judges and are only in the first season. They are all bright green and are based on Randy Jackson, Paula Abdul, and Simon Cowell.

World Tour

  • Akito is the band's pen pal in Tokyo, Japan. He has a robot named Robo-Dude.
  • Joey is a kangaroo in Sydney, Australia.
  • Dwight is a giant monster in Italy who is often hungry and is used as a comedic explanation for the Tower of Pisa's leaning and for the Colosseum missing a large part of its wall.
  • Ravi is an energetic four-year-old boy in India. He has the biggest star in Bollywood, Pooja.
  • The Rancher is an introducer in Texas.
  • Johnny and Franklin were introduced in the World Tour episode "The Monster Tangle" in Argentina.
  • The Queen is a three-eyed monster who lives in Buckingham Palace.
