Barnes & Barnes are an American comedic rock duo, renowned for their novelty songs and humorous, often surreal approach to music. The pairing consists of Art Barnes (real name Robert Haimer) and Artie Barnes (actor and musician Bill Mumy, known for his childhood role as Will Robinson in the original “Lost in Space” television series). They first emerged on the music scene in the late 1970s and achieved cult status with the release of their bizarre and catchy song "Fish Heads," which aired on "Saturday Night Live" and became a staple on the Dr. Demento radio show.

Throughout the decades, Barnes & Barnes have continued to entertain their fans with their peculiar blend of humor and melody, releasing a series of whimsical albums that showcase their distinctive style. Beyond "Fish Heads," notable entries in their discography involve a mix of studio albums, compilations, and retrospective collections such as "Holidaze in Lumania," a quirky take on holiday music, and the "Aged Cheese & Fine Whines" volumes, featuring a selection of rarities and fan favorites. The duo's ability to blend comedic narratives with musical experimentation has cemented their status as a unique and enduring facet of the novelty music genre.
