Eli Radish Band

The Eli Radish Band was a Cleveland, Ohio-based band active from 1968 to 1973. They were closely tied to the development of the outlaw country and alt-country music genres.

The group signed with Capitol Records in 1969 and released its only album I Didn't Raise My Boy To Be A Soldier, which featured tracks with anti-war messages ironically reminiscent of World War I and II era patriotic music. After recording for Capitol Records and Olympia Records, the group eventually disbanded in 1973.
