About Country Joe and the Fish

Country Joe and the Fish emerged from the 1960s counterculture scene in Berkeley, California. Fronted by Joe McDonald, the band became known for their psychedelic rock and folk music, which captured the spirit of the era's social movements. They gained significant recognition with their performance at the 1969 Woodstock Festival.

Their music frequently addresses the harsh realities and human costs of war, often delivered with a satirical edge. Their anti-war sentiment resonated with the youth of their time, particularly with songs like 'I-Feel-Like-I’m-Fixin’-to-Die Rag,' which critiqued the Vietnam War and became an anthem for the anti-war movement.
