The Judy's were a Pearland, Texas-based punk and new wave band from the late 1970s and early 1980s. The song for which they are most likely best-remembered, "Guyana Punch", recounted the infamous Jonestown massacre. On December 1, 2007, The Judy's announced the opening of their own label and website, Wasted Talent Records. On this website, the albums Moo and Washarama were released on CD and vinyl, having been previously available only on vinyl and cassette tape. They also sell various merchandise. In their heyday, the band was composed of:
- David B. Bean (songwriter, vocals, guitars, keyboards)
- Dane Cessac (drums, vocals)
- Jeff Walton (bass, vocals)
