Hoola Bandoola Band was a progg band from Sweden. The group was formed in 1970 by Mikael Wiehe, Björn Afzelius, and Peter Clemmedson. The group consisted of Wiehe, Afzelius, Clemmedson, Povel Randén, Arne Franck, Per Ove Kellgren, and Håkan Skytte. The group’s formal split occurred in 1976, but the group reunited for a short summer tour in 1996. They are best known for their leftist political lyrics.
The group’s name was inspired by a fictional language spoken by ants in Tea for Two Hundred, an animated short film starring Donald Duck. |
