American psychedelic rock band, Iron Butterfly, was formed in San Diego in 1966. Known for their unique sound and captivating performances, the band quickly gained popularity during the late 1960s.

The current lineup of Iron Butterfly includes Michael Green on percussion and vocals, Eric Barnett on lead guitar and vocals, Dave Meros on bass guitar and vocals, Ray Weston on drums, and Martin Gerschwitz on keyboards and vocals.

During their classic lineup from 1966 to 1971, Iron Butterfly featured Doug Ingle on organ and lead vocals, Ron Bushy on drums and percussion, Lee Dorman on bass and backing vocals, Erik Brann on guitars and backing vocals (with occasional lead vocal), Mike Pinera on guitar and vocals, as well as Larry "Rhino" Reinhardt on guitar.

Iron Butterfly's second album, 'In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida', was cut from the same cloth as contemporary outings by fellow LA luminaries The Seeds, The Music Machine and The Strawberry Alarm Clock, yet it outshone them all. 'In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida' sold in excess of one million copies in its first year alone and became the soundtrack to the summer of 1968, its 17-minute title track defining a generation of stoned alternative rock fans. 'In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida' has taken on a life of its own, having been used in many films (Manhunter, Resident Evil: Extinction) and TV shows (The A Team, Seinfeld, The Simpsons - twice!), as well as being covered (Slayer, Boney M) and sampled (Beck, Nas) numerous times.
