Triangle Chicken Jones

Mildred Grunters
An ex prostitute and victim of Tourette's Syndrome, Mildred is the pianist and other lead singer of the band. Mildred is known for her high pitched squeals randomly during the songs, often adding a sense of promiscuity to the music. Grunters is voiced by actual band member, Emily Mills.
Foone
Foone is the eccentric drummer of the band. He doesn't speak, but instead screeches. Foone is the primary songwriter of the band. The squeals he makes during songs are a sped-up version of a yawn.
