The Pop Group are a British post-punk band formed in Bristol in 1978 by Mark Stewart (lyrics, vocals), John Waddington (guitar), Gareth Sager (guitar), Simon Underwood (bass) and Bruce Smith (drums, percussion). Their experimental and politically-charged musical aesthetic spans funk, punk rock, free-jazz, and avant-garde.

The Pop Group released two LPs and several singles in its initial period before disbanding in 1981. In 2010, the band reformed, touring and planning a new record.
