Meet Triton...

...And their families!

Ralphie Allen — A man of small stature and large impact; Ralphie hails from Blackpool, England, and has quite the long history with music. His introduction to an instrument came at a very young age, the exact number of which, he cannot recall, upon Ralphie mentioning he wanted to be just like his father, an amateur pianist. Of course, with Ralphie being an ambitious child and his parents refusing to let him halfass this apparent dream, there was no way Ralphie's career was stopping simply at "amateur". The small boy from Blackpool with a flair for breaking things in exotic ways was almost certain to go pro. Much to the delight of everyone who had even the most remote of hands in enabling Ralphie's lessons, Ralphie did go pro, and he did so at quite a young age. Though, truthfully, no one exactly hoped that their beloved little neighborhood musician would go on to create some of the most memorable incidents... In any sort of rock music. Still, it was hard not to be proud of the little boy, now a little man, who had made such a crater in music history just by being his curious, chaotic self.

Kotone Allen — A lady of incredibly private circumstances. All that is released to the public, at her request, is that she and Ralphie met in Japan during one of Triton's tours, and she left with them, putting the life she'd led until then behind her. She currently works in the fashion industry, and has the occasional musical cameo in Triton's music.

Taylor Allen — A rising star himself, Taylor Allen is Ralphie and Kotone's son. He's had Ralphie and Ben both teach him how to play different instruments, and though he's not often in the public eye, he is certainly a fan of pink.

Ben Lake — An inner city Londoner, a troublemaker, a good musician, and a lovely voice. Ben is the son of a WWII veteran, from whom, he seemed to inherit a love of the radio. At the age of six, an uncle gifted him with a small, cheap guitar, and offered him lessons. From there, he'd never looked back. Playing with a few small-time groups in his teens, Ben later collided with Ralphie, who suggested they form their own group, in which case, Ben could have all the attention he wanted. Ben, of course, agreed eventually, following the souring of relationships between himself and a former bandmate. Together, the pair set off in search of a few more pieces to their traveling circus of a band, in hopes that they could find the one or two things they were missing.

Penny Lake — A talented violinist who grew up just down the road from her long-time boyfriend (later husband) Ben, Penny Lake nee Lane joined Triton's musical efforts after incessant whining from her fiancé about how much more she could bring to their music, and how much more time they would have together. Penny is the mother of Ben's two known children, twins Allen and Connie.

Allen Lake — Guitarist like his father, Allen's tastes are more eccentric and downright weird than the others in the band's. No one knows a whole lot about him, aside he and his sister seem to have some sort of punk garage band. He cameos in some of Triton's songs.

Connie Lake — Slightly weirder than Allen, Connie plays guitar and fiddle, and often plays a guitar like a fiddle just because she can. She plays in Allen's garage band and also may have appeared on one or two tracks.

Kim Williams — A drummer from the backwoods of Michigan, all Kim ever really wanted to be was Gene Krupa or Buddy Rich. Unfortunately, both those options were taken, so he settled for being Kim Williams and set out to be a little bit better if he could. Ralphie and Ben stumbled upon Kim while the three were on a vacation to a music festival, Kim struck up a conversation, and Ben and Ralphie both agreed he was the missing piece of the puzzle of weirdness, thus creating Triton. Kim isn't quite as eccentric as the other two men, but he certainly knows his stuff. He's also the youngest, which is strange considering he's the calmest of the three.

Mona Williams — Kim's wife and, honestly, usually just the cheerleading squad, which she's fine with. Mona plays wind instruments, typically, of which Triton does not often require in their music. She's also elected herself the unofficial den mother of the band, seeing as everyone else, save the other two wives, seems more interested in causing chaos and making music than actually having an eating routine.

Riszi Williams — Son of Kim and Mona, Riszi followed in his dad's footsteps pretty closely. Riszi's repertoire is slightly expanded from Kim's, however, in that he also feels totally at home hitting things that do not constitute drums, cymbals, or gongs (xylophones, chimes, bells, etc.), and usually backs his father's drumming when need be. His chaos frequently clashes with Ralphie's and complements Ben's to a concerning degree.
