Crash Test Dummies

Canadian pop-rock/alternative rock band from Winnipeg, formed in 1988 and comprised of Brad Roberts - vocals and guitar and Ellen Reid - keyboards and vocals.

After issuing their debut-album "The Ghosts that Haunt Me" in 1991, the band achieved considerable success with the 1993 follow-up, "God Shuffled His Feet" and the hit-singles "Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm", "Afternoons and Coffeespoons" and a cover of XTC's "The Ballad Of Peter Pumpkinhead". The third album, "A Worm's Life" was released in 1996, plus "Give Yourself a Hand" (1999), "I Don't Care That You Don't Mind" (2001), "Puss 'n' Boots" (2003), "Songs of the Unforgiven" (2004), and 2010's: "Oooh La La!".
