The Lazy Cowgirls were an American punk rock band, formed in Los Angeles in 1983 by Pat Todd. Known for their aggressive style, they were crucial in the development of the cowpunk subgenre, which fuses punk rock with country elements. Their raw energy and Todd's distinctive, gravelly vocals made them stand out. Notable works include their self-titled debut album and "Tapping the Source," both of which had a significant influence on the punk scene of the 1980s and 1990s.
