The Fibonaccis
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Fibonaccis were an art rock group from Los Angeles. The members were Magie Song (vocals), Ron Stringer (guitar and bass), John Dentino (keyboards), and Joe Berardi (drums).
Rather like Siouxsie & the Banshees, the Fibonaccis were intelligent and technically accomplished musicians who explored dark themes, but they did so in a more cartoonish and satirical fashion. Their rendition of Bernard Herrmann's theme from Psycho was a favorite in concert. Their bizarre cover of Jimi Hendrix's "Purple Haze" is preceded by a snippet from a jailhouse interview of Charles Manson.
