[[Katrina and the Waves]] was an English [[New Wave]]/Rock band active between 1981-1999, known for exactly two things: writing the song "Walking on Sunshine" and having, [[Funny Aneurysm Moment|in retrospect, a really unfortunate band name]]<ref>When Hurricane Katrina and its storm surge devastated much of the U.S. Gulf Coast in September 2005, the MSNBC news program ''Countdown with Keith Olbermann'' dubbed its coverage of the hurricane, "Katrina and the Waves"; the name also appeared in numerous headlines and blog postings. A ''New York Times'' reporter contacted Katrina Leskanich, who said: "The first time I opened the paper and saw 'Katrina kills 9,' it was a bit of a shock. ... I hope that the true spirit of 'Walking on Sunshine' will prevail. I would hate for the title to be tinged with sadness, and I will have to do my own part to help turn that around."</ref>. Its members were: vocalist and guitarist Katrina Leskanich, guitarist [[Gender Blender Name|Kimberley Rew]], bassist Vince de la Cruz and drummer Alex Cooper.
