Frumious Bandersnatch was a psychedelic rock band in the late 1960s. The band was named after a character from the Lewis Carroll poem "Jabberwocky". Based in San Francisco, California, the band was active from 1967 to 1969. Their initial three-song EP produced a minor underground hit[according to whom?] with the song "Hearts to Cry".[citation needed] A recording of their live work, titled A Young Man's Song, was released[when?] by Big Beat (UK).[better source needed]
