• Grace 'Lambchops' Lamb; Drums (Fara Adnin Faidzan): A loud, confrontational rock chick and tomboy who plays the drums for Schlomo's band. She often loses her temper and at times doesn't take school seriously.
• Goodman 'Goody' King; Sax (Bernard Sam): A saxophone musician who is in Schlomo's band. Sarcastic and amiable, he's Schlomo's right hand man. He starts off initially as a sexist, but that changes throughout the course of his high school life.
