- Sleepy People (sometimes also known as Blue Apple Boy) are a British psychedelic rock band known for eccentric, energetic songs and live performances, as well as for incubating several future members of Britpop band Ultrasound. The band have an eclectic musical approach which blends psychedelic rock, New Wave pop, punk and progressive rock (other ingredients have included noise-rock, nursery rhymes, ska, Muzak, bossa nova, circus/fairground music, tango and anything else which the band members find inspiring). Sleepy People are strongly influenced by other theatrical British psychedelic band such as Cardiacs and The Monochrome Set, with their lyrics varying from cheerful or sinister nonsense to surreal representations of everyday life and hallucinatory twists on eccentric stories from tabloid newspapers. There is a difference between Sleepy People and The Sleepy People (a New Wave indie rock band from Oregon) or Sleeping People (a Californian progressive rock band). (en)
