FRANCIS [20-40 , F3-B5]
The leader and caretaker of the group. Confident. Asthmatic. He has a great deal of compassion for the music and the group. Romantic crooner and spiritual singer.
SPARKY [20-40,F3-G5]
The clown of the group, who is shown to have a heart. Very sharp and loves singing his tailor-made solos. Wears a retainer and has a slight speech impediment. Energetic and clever.
JINX [20-40,F3-D6]
The shy one. He lives his life terrified and doesn't always remember what song comes next. Sparky's step-brother, he occasionally gets a nosebleed when he sings above an A.
SMUDGE [20-40,F3-G5]
The worrier. He worries about the props, the running order, and always assumes the audience won't like him. Has a chronic nervous stomach and is oddly reluctant to perform.
