The group became famous for their OneHitWonder ''Cotton Eye Joe'', but pretty much vanished off international charts after that, with the group focusing on only staying relevant in North Europe. It is pretty much a manufactured band, as there are over 10 active performers associated with the group.

!!Tropes associated with the band

* HalfWittedHillbilly: This Swedish group assumes the identities and dress style of ''extremely'' [[FakeAmerican stereotypical American hillbillies]], and their biggest hit, "Cotton-Eyed Joe", is a [[SpeedyTechnoRemake techno rendition]] of an old Southern folk song. Suffice to say, the band doesn't exactly exude intelligence or dignity.
