Jake and Friends

Jake and Friends is a Macanese children's electronic music project formed in 2018 by singer and rapper João Vieira (born 17 June 2002) and his two friends, Maria Gomes (born 19 July 2004) and Wing Wah-Leung (born 2 January 2004). The band is best known for its use of Vocaloid technology and its exceptional style of costuming, using glowing contacts and wigs for Vieira's stage costume.

Vieira portrays the role of a 12-year-old boy, Jake Molson, and his two friends, Suzie (a fairy girl in a Japanese schoolgirl uniform, portrayed by Gomes), and Randy (a robot, portrayed by Wing). Jake is generally a happy-go-lucky boy going on adventures with his two friends.

The band uses the Vocaloid software to provide the voices of Suzie and Randy, whose real actors are not shown actually singing and instead pretend to lip-sync with the Vocaloid voices.

Jake and Friends' official YouTube channel has over 5 million subscribers and 200 million total views. The channel uploads mainly music videos, covers of popular children's songs, gameplays and their Twisted Fairytales series.
