Formed in Australia in the late 80s, Big Pig consisted of several vocalists, percussionists, keyboard players and at least one harmonica player but used no guitars. They played a fun, danceable style that emphasized syncopated rhythms and vocal harmony with an unexpected socially conscious lyrical bent.

The group's second album "You Lucky People" was released in Australia.
