Yoko & the Gold Bazookas is a band in Splatoon 3. One of their songs, Ska-BLAM, plays in the announcement trailer for Sizzle Season 2023. Their lineup consists of a trumpet (Yoko), trombone, and baritone saxophone, accompanied by a full rhythm section, as well as vocals.
The band is a side project of Yoko from Ink Theory.[1] The band was formed when Yoko joined a jam session in Splatsville to test her skills. After getting along with the other musicians in attendance, they quickly formed a seven-member group.[2]
