Marimba & Tambora are a pair of supporting characters from Trolls World Tour. They're hinterland Trolls who are Tresillo's female Reggaeton dancers.
Appearance
- Normal

Tambora is a chartreuse Troll with a pink nose and hair. She has yellow and orange markings on her body, and golden earrings.
Skills & Abilities
They have most normal Troll abilities.
Music
Their speciality is Reggaeton. They're two of the Trolls who are a subculture spun from existing Tribes, similar to Tiny Diamond and Chaz. They are the start of brand new Tribe of Trolls, but are limited in their numbers right now.
Marimba and Tambora are synchronized dancers able to pull off twists and twirls together with their leader Tresillo. The dance seen during Mi Gente involved a lot of hip movement as well. They also sing in the song Just Sing, during a brief Reggaeton part.
They and Tresillo are the first Trolls featured so far to not sing in English.
Bounty Hunting
They are quite sly Bounty Hunters; they didn't do the work needed to capture Branch, but rather let The K-Pop Gang do it for them; then they and Tresillo moved in to take Branch from the K-Pop Gang afterwards, though Tresillo proposed a split after the two groups gained each other's mutual respect.

Etymology
They're named after percussion instruments. A "tambora" is a two-headed drum, and a "marimba" is a wooden-bared instrument with hanging bars.
