Lazlo Bane is an alternative rock band from Santa Monica, California, United States. They are well known for collaborating with former Men at Work member Colin Hay, and providing the song "Superman" as the theme for the television show Scrubs.

The band's origin can be traced back to the efforts of Chad Fischer touring with School of Fish in the early 1990s as a drummer. After a disagreement and falling out with a producer and School of Fish eventual split, Fischer went solo and began writing and recording his own material without the benefit of professional mixing or mastering.

Taking the name Lazlo Bane Chad Fischer initially signed to Los Angeles-based indie label Fish of Death Records, and released debut single “Buttercup” backed with a cover of Men at Work's 1983 hit "Overkill". The latter was recorded in conjunction with Men at Work's frontman Colin Hay, with whom Chad Fischer formed a solid relationship and would continue to collaborate in the studio and live to this day. In 1996 Fischer resigned to a bigger label Almo Sounds, recruiting bass player Chris Link, guitarist Tim Bright and a drummer nicknamed Chicken to form a band and to share the effort and workload. In August 1996, they produced an EP, Short Style, composed of five tracks, and on January 28, 1997, Lazlo Bane released their first full-length album, 11 Transistor, featuring Fischer originals as well as their proved to be popular cover of "Overkill". The song was released as a single by Almo Sounds and was accompanied by a music video directed by Mark Miremont (again featuring Colin Hay), which eventually reached MTV2's Top 10 of the Year list for 1997.
