— Kelpy G, "The Thing"
|
Kelpy G is one of the famous clarinet players who Squidward dreams of being like. He appears in the episodes "The Thing" and "Smoothe Jazz at Bikini Bottom," the book Mistaken Identity, the online games How Well Do You Know SpongeBob SquarePants? and Which SpongeBob Are You?, and the movie The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run.
Description
Kelpy G's appearance is like most octopuses in the show: tall and teal with four legs. He has long, light brown hair and a regular brown mustache. He wears an orange, long-sleeve turtleneck with three red stripes on it. However, in "Smoothe Jazz at Bikini Bottom," he wears leather black shoes that look like SpongeBob's and a long purple dress-shirt.

Personality
He seems to be a very mellow octopus who believes in peace and tranquility.
Biography
Kelpy G has his very own TV show where he performs smooth jazz. He also performs smooth jazz for the Smellies; he calls them "his children," suggesting that he is their leader.
He appears in the episodes "The Thing" and "Smoothe Jazz at Bikini Bottom," both of in which he performs a jazz song on Squidward's TV and performs a concert. In the former, Squidward is annoyed that SpongeBob and Patrick keep interrupting while he is trying to listen to Kelpy G play.
In the latter, Squidward attempts to meet Kelpy G but gets kicked out as SpongeBob plays with the musician.
Trivia
- He is a parody of Kenny G.
- His music can be heard in "Bucket Sweet Bucket," "A Flea in Her Dome," and "Enchanted Tiki Dreams," but he is not seen in those episodes.
- Even though he met Squidward in "The Thing," he does not seem to recognize him when he meets him again in "Smoothe Jazz at Bikini Bottom."
- Squidward is seen briefly reading a Kelpy G magazine in The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run.
