Mister Fred's Round Pegs and Bass Peepsis[when?] an all-star musical ensemble led by New Orleans writer and performer P.H. (PH) Fred, who is best known for the Dr. Demento tune “Kill Barney”[1] and his tenure with BROWN! Improv alongside Ken Jeong.[2] The group's debut CD, Lithium and Underoos, is a folk opera loosely based on Fred's battles with manic depression post-Katrina.[3][4][5]

Mister Fred's Round Pegs and Bass Peeps also features[when?] guitarist Steve Hunter and bassist Fernando Saunders,[6] both Lou Reed alumni. Other Bass Peeps include Jimmy Messa (The Subdudes), George Porter Jr. (The Meters), and Mike Watt (Minutemen, Firehose, The Stooges).[7]

A live version of the band performs[when?] in New Orleans under the abbreviated name The Round Pegs.[8]

The band is currently[when?] finishing up its second full-length CD N.O.Americana. Hunter, Saunders, and Watt are all involved in the project.[citation needed]
