- Synopsis:
Zak, Tang, Panzee and Drum are music sensation ZingZillas. Launching on CBeebies in April, this brand new music show will get toddlers and tots across the nation grooving on down to the ZingZillas' sound. At home on their tropical island paradise, this band of primate friends live to play fantastic music. Gorilla and lead singer, Zak, provides vocals while musical genius and lead guitarist, Tang the orang-utan, creates the toe-tapping, finger-clicking compositions. The band is styled by chimpanzee bass guitarist and keyboard player, Panzee, and monkey percussionist Drum always lays down a great beat. Under the guidance of their mentor, music guru DJ Loose, they create their unique ZingZilla sound in time for their daily performance, The Big Zing, with a little help from their island friends: the Moaning Stones, Granite and Gravel, doo-wopping on the bass line; the Beach Byrds, Maxine, Patti and Laverne, harmonising their backing vocals; and island caretaker and eccentric inventor, Todd, boogieing along on the beach. During each episode, the tropical island is visited by a different musical guest, including some of the biggest names in the international music scene - from opera star Sarah Connolly to scat singer Dame Cleo Laine to didgeridoo player Dhinawan. The ZingZillas always discover their musical guests in a lush jungle glade which pulsates with music. They take inspiration from the guests and incorporate them and their sounds into each Big Zing. Ranging from a full concert orchestra to a lone saxophonist or a bottleneck guitarist, this series embraces and celebrates musical genres from around the world. - Actors:
