Ugly Kid Joe is an American rock band that formed in Isla Vista, California in 1989. The band is best known for their hit songs “Everything About You” and “Cats in the Cradle” from their 1991 debut album “As Ugly as They Wanna Be.” The band’s sound is a mix of hard rock, heavy metal, and funk, and they were known for their humorous and sometimes controversial lyrics. The band’s original lineup consisted of Whitfield Crane (vocals), Klaus Eichstadt (guitar), Cordell Crockett (bass), Shannon Larkin (drums) and Dave Fortman (guitar), and they released a total of four studio albums before breaking up in 1997. They reunited in 2010 and have released new music and touring since then.
