The Landlords were an early hardcore punk band from Charlottesville, Virginia, United States.[1] The band, consisting of four students from the University of Virginia, was formed at around October 1983.
A month after the Landlords formed, the band began to break off into a number of other bands:
- Happy Flowers (Beers and Kramer)[1]
- Big Foot
- The Rock and Roll Brothers
- The Jazz Deacons
- The Mel Cooley Fusion Project
- Lawndoctor
- Trinity
When Beers and Kramer concentrated on their Happy Flowers work, Landlords bassist Eddie Jetlag continued his association with them by writing sleevenotes for their releases.[2] The Landlords continued for a few years after Happy Flowers started.[3]
