Artist Bio:
The Flying Lizards were a British experimental rock band formed in 1976 by David Cunningham. The group is best known for their quirky cover version of the song "Money (That's What I Want)", originally recorded by Barrett Strong, which became a surprise hit in 1979. The band's music is characterized by its minimalist and deconstructed approach, incorporating elements of post-punk, new wave, and electronic music.
Their self-titled debut album, released in 1979, featured a mix of original compositions and cover songs, all reinterpreted with a distinctive avant-garde sensibility. The Flying Lizards' music often featured unconventional instrumentation and offbeat arrangements, contributing to their reputation as pioneers of the art rock and experimental pop genres. Despite limited commercial success, the band's unique sound has earned them a cult following among fans of alternative and avant-garde music.
