Meat Puppets

Meat Puppets
Meat Puppets is an American rock band formed in January 1980 in Phoenix, Arizona. The group’s original lineup was Curt Kirkwood in guitar/vocals, his brother Cris Kirkwood in bass guitar, and Derrick Bostrom in drums. The Kirkwood brothers met Bostrom while attending Brophy Prep High School in Phoenix. The three then moved to Tempe, Arizona (a Phoenix suburb and home to Arizona State University) where the Kirkwood brothers purchased two adjacent homes, one of which had a shed in the back where they regularly practiced.
