Shirley & Squirrely was an American novelty act from the late 1970s, known for their distinctive blend of pop and novelty music. The group consisted of Shirley, a human singer, and Squirrely, a character voiced using a speeded-up tape to create a high-pitched "chipmunk" effect. They are most famous for their hit single "Hey Shirley (This is Squirrely)" which reached number 28 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1976. Their unique style and approach to music production added a distinctive flavor to the novelty music scene of the era.
