The Bonzo Dog Band

The Bonzo Dog Band, originally known as the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, was a British comedy rock group formed in 1962 and active through 1970. They combined elements of music hall, trad jazz, and psychedelic rock with surreal and often absurdist humor, and were known for theatrical performances and satirical songwriting. Key figures included Vivian Stanshall and Neil Innes, and the band is remembered for its distinctive blend of musicianship and comedy within the 1960s British pop and underground scene.
