Nintendo's Summer 2024 Magazine, a video game periodical primarily distributed by Nintendo Japan, featured a six-page article on Splatoon 3's fictional musical ensembles. These groups included:

⚫︎　Shiver, Big Man, and Frye, aka the idol group "Deep Cut"
⚫︎　Pearl and Marina, aka the duo "Off The Hook"
⚫︎　Callie and Marie, aka the pop group "Squid Sisters"

They participated in an interview titled The Great Big Three-Group Summit. Initially discussing collaborations and festival performances, the musicians candidly reflected on their experiences within the Splatoon series.

Specifically, Callie of the Squid Sisters, mentioned Deep Cut giving the pop group a tour of Splatlands, a remote region in the game. "I hope you appreciated it. We know where the Splatlands excel better than anyone," Shiver responded to Callie.

"That natural beauty of Scorch Gorge was stunning! And I enjoyed navigating the Hagglefish Market crowds," Callie shared. "Plus, the skyscrapers! Amazing! It was an unforgettable tour."

While Callie reminisced about exploring Splatlands with the idol group, Marie playfully suggested a reunion with Off The Hook. "I think Callie might become emotional recalling it," Marie said, then reminding Off The Hook of their overdue teatime.

"Yeah, not since our tour began," Marina said, suggesting a new sweets shop in Inkpolis Square, with Pearl inviting Frye. "You're invited too, Frye. Let's settle our last karaoke battle!"
