Grass Show (often written Grass~Show®) were a Britpop-inspired indie band from Sweden, active in the mid-late 90s. They released one album in the United Kingdom, Something Smells Good In Stinkville, in 1997, with three singles, "1962", "Freak Show" and "Out Of The Void". The album contains a cover of the well known Ace of Base song "All That She Wants".
The artwork for their releases was notable as it often portrayed imagery of 50s American families, which were juxtaposed with surreal and absurd elements. For example, the sleeves for the "1962" single has images of families cooking trainers.
