The Bandleader

"Thank you verrrrrry much-a!"
— Bandleader

The Bandleader (ボーカル^?, Vocal), also known as The Sax Player (サクソフォン^?, Saxophone), is the leader of The Frogettes in Frog Hop and Jumpin' Jazz in Rhythm Heaven and Rhythm Heaven Megamix.

The Bandleader looks very similar to The Frogettes he leads. He is a light blue bipedal frog with a lighter blue belly. He wears dark blue tights with a red stripe. He has long blue arms, a round face, and two tall eyes.

Story

The Bandleader can sing and play the saxophone. Dancing, singing, and playing instruments is how the frog family makes its money^[1]. His saxophone was lent to him by someone^[2], and he accidentally dropped it into a pond^[3].

The Bandleader introduces the player to Rhythm Heaven, telling the player about flicking and congratulating them for clearing Remix 6. He appears in Munchy Monk in Rhythm Heaven Fever, where he can occasionally be seen out the window along with The Frogettes.
