- American alternative rock musical duo, made up of John Flansburgh and John Linnell, from Brooklyn, NY who started in the 1980s independent scene. They are known for their offbeat sound, emphasizing Linnell's accordion, and their often absurdist and wordplay-filled lyrics. They have released 23 studio albums. Their major label debut, 1990's "Flood," is their only one to go platinum. They have also done themes for various television shows.
The old guy whose face has been featured in their videos and concerts is William Allen White, a Kansas progressive newspaper editor, politician and author.
