Kay Pipe, who's one of the founders, says: "Our music is fabulous, written by a wonderful singer songwriter from Kidderminster who is amazingly talented."
听
So far, they've created seven jungle characters that have their own songs and they're currently working on a second album!

听
They've have recently taken their music and characters into elderly care and are now doing regular sessions with dementia patients.
