- Gritty the Rabbit: With her washboard crafted from a license plate, Gritty adds high-energy vibes, perfectly complementing her enthusiastic nature.
- Beau the Opossum: A virtuoso of the upright gourd bass, Beau finds beauty in the bayou’s melodies, showcasing her tail’s musical agility.
- Apollo the Raccoon: An artist of the squeezebox, Apollo’s zest and narratives breathe life into the bayou’s forgotten treasures.
- Rufus the Turtle: Quick to catch the beat with his harmonica, Rufus’s adventurous spirit is as infectious as his music.
- Timoléon the Otter: The group’s elder, Timoléon’s fiddle sings stories of bayou explorations, inspired by the youthful energy around him.
As Tiana’s journey unfolds, guests are left to wonder what other delightful characters they might encounter in the depths of the bayou. This unveiling of original Disney characters is a rare treat, enriching the theme park experience with fresh, imaginative life.
