Men Without Hats had an elf and a snowman as members.

There's also Lancelot Link and the Evolution Revolution, one of the more sadly neglected participants in the 1970 bubblegum movement.

Lancelot Link and the Evolution Revolution
The Sugar Bears (early '70s LP by the breakfast cereal icons, featuring Kim Carnes as Honey Bear)

Also, there's a death metal band called Hatebeak--the vocalist is a parrot.

that track with the dog growling over the metal riffs is the best thing ever!

River Bottom Nightmare Band.

Oh, and the Electric Mayhem.

P.S. Who would make the best "Behind the Music" episode:
(a) River Bottom Nightmare Band
(b) Electric Mayhem
(c) Banana Splits

Seems to me only (a) would truly embody the nightmarish descent into pills and booze -- but on the other hand, (b) has all the romantic entanglements of the Jefferson Airplane ep. (c) would be too nice, like the Huey Lewis & the News ep.
