VHS or Beta is a band from Louisville, Kentucky, that combines elements of French funk and dance-punk. Their self-released debut, Le Funk, was a minor splash in the record charts but it wasn't until 2004's Night on Fire that the band achieved great success. The song of the same title is in the movie Grandma's Boy and on The OC. The band's members are guitarist/vocalist Craig Pfunder, bassist Mark Palgy, and drummer Mark Guidry. In 2005 they toured with Duran Duran.
