The Skele-Tunes is a group of jazz musicians who befriend Skull Boy in the episode "Skull Boys Don't Cry", nicknaming him "SB". They also appear in "Hair(less): The Musical", and make cameos in other episodes. The lead vocalist, Skele-T, is notably the only member who actually wears clothes, sporting a gold tooth, matching earrings, a white bowler hat, and a checkered shirt. The other skeletons, whom Skele-T refers to as "The Bones" each have a different instrument; one with an accordion, one with a tuba and one using his rib cage as a xylophone. They also differ in size, shape and bone tone.

Skele-T does most of the talking, using confusing slang phrases such as, "You're straight from the fridge daddio" and throwing in skeleton puns like "You fracture me" instead of "You crack me up". The Skele-Tunes find messing with people hilarious. They hid every time Skull Boy tried to introduce them to his friends (until the end of the episode). Messing with his head really "fractured" them. When Skull Boy leaves Gloom Manor to try and find his roots in "Hair(Less): The Musical", Skele-T even invites him to join their band, but Skull Boy eventually understands where he needs to be regardless of knowing where he came from.
