* Svenja (born November 1984)
* Lotte (born May 1984)
* Lindsy (born November 1983)
Lindsy is described as a helpful little girl, sometimes timid, one of her favourite activities is chatting on the phone. Lotte is said to be open-minded and honest, and she loves animals. Svenja is sporty, she also loves dancing and shopping.
The three girls met in a dancing school in Eindhoven where their dancing skills were discovered by Platenproducer who signed them up for their first single Hide and Seek under the Djumbo Project. Their 2 first singles entered top 5 in their homeland and they succeeded, in less than 6 months, to become one of the most popular pop groups there.
Djumbo's style fits into the eurodance and bubblegum dance categories, although some of their songs are more pop-based. Their sound is quite similar to Ch!pz, who are also based in the Netherlands, and Swedish dance group Smile.dk. Both have the fun bouncy 'childish' style that make it popular amongst children.
The lyrics of most Djumbo songs are written in a combination of English and Dutch, with the majority of the song being in Dutch and the chorus (and title) being in English.

The song "Boya Boya Bay" by Dutch girl group Djumbo is a song about dancing and partying. The lyrics are a mix of Spanish and Dutch words, which is common in Dutch pop songs. The song starts with the lines "Ooh la la, give me rumba mambo chacha / Aah Ya Ye, at the boya boya bay," inviting the listener to dance and have fun. The chorus repeats the lines "Ooh la la, we are dancing in the moonlight / Aah Ya Ya, let us party all night" to emphasize the carefree and joyful mood of the song.
The second verse tells the story of a girl meeting a guy named Pedro, who is "superduper" and "zo zwoel." The lyrics are simple and playful, reflecting the lightheartedness of the song. The bridge brings a change in tone as the singer reflects on a summer romance, singing "Ooh la la, Oh wat zit het soms tegen / Ooh la la, Denk ik gewoon weer aan jou / Ooh la la, Ik zal het nooit meer vergeten / Ooh la la, Heel die zomer met jou aan de zee." This part brings a nostalgic feeling and adds depth to the otherwise light and fun lyrics.
