Grojband is the central focus of the TV show Grojband. They are a band of four teenagers named Corey, Kin, Kon, and Laney. Their music is great, but they're terrible at writing lyrics. In order to get lyrics, they have to get them from Corey's sister Trina's diary. Grojband will have to do something to annoy Trina and play with her emotions so that she will freak out and go insane. When she does this, she writes in her diary to let out her anger. Corey will steal her diary, read her latest entry, and put it into words for a new song.

Biography

Members

Corey Riffin

Main article: Corey Riffin

Corey is a cute and quirky 13-year-old teenage boy who is the lead singer and lead guitarist of Grojband. He is the one who always has great ideas on how to get their band out there and noticed. He is always getting them into some kind of trouble, but he always finds a way to weasel his little way right on out of them. He is the brother of the lyrical genius, Trina and it is his crazy plans that always get her to go into a wildly raging diary mode so that he can get her lyrics and make a great song for the band to play at their next gig. Corey seems to be rebellious and careless and shows no mercy when it comes to torturing his sister for lyrics, but because of the fact that Trina is very rude to Corey and wants his band destroyed, he has no reason not to. Although Trina is the biggest threat to his band, Corey has room for some more enemies. These would be his rival band, The Newmans. Whenever he runs into them, he and the leader, Carrie Beff will get into a huge argument that will lead to a battle of the bands. Band battles of which Corey always wins. It seems as though no matter how wrong things go for Corey, even if he's the reason for them going wrong, Corey has a "Crazy plan that just might work." which sure enough, ends up working just as he said. He is voiced by Lyon Smith.

Kin Kujira

Main article: Kin Kujira

Kin is the keyboardist of Grojband. Kin is a nerdy inventor as well as the twin brother of Kon. He is always having a lot of smart predicaments for the band and some science experiments and potions and crazy wild and intelligent machines that come in very handy when his band needs them. Due to the events of the episode Ahead of our own Tone, Kin is the oldest member of the band, being 14 years old. However, this is not because of natural causes but a consequence of time traveling. He is voiced by Sergio Di Zio.

Kon Kujira

Main article: Kon Kujira

Kon is the drummer of the band and the twin brother of Kin. Kon is a fun-loving fat guy who loves eating food and having fun more than anything. He is always eating and will eat any food he can get his hands on every chance he gets no matter what. Some foods make him very gassy and because of this, he has made himself a walking talking fart joke. He is voiced by Tim Beresford.

Laney Penn

Main article: Laney Penn

Laney is the bassist of the band. She is a fiery red-haired girl with a strong but sweet personality. Because of her boyish nature and being in a band with all boys, she is usually being mistaken for a boy by people who don't know her. Even her own bandmates, who know for a fact that she's a girl, see her as "one of the guys" and will address her with masculine names such as "Man" and "Dude." Laney has a crush on Corey but is too nervous to ask him out. She tries dropping hints, but Corey stays oblivious to all of it. Her personality seems to be pretty uncertain. She mostly acts tomboyish and shows more interest in the things that other guys do than other girls, but on some occasions, she proves to be very feminine and will act like a stereotypical girly-girl. When doing this, she shows even more interest in the girly things than the guy things. She does, however, seem to be very secretive about it for some reason. She is voiced by Bryn McAuley.
