Joshua Rainhorn

Overwrought pianist/singer played by Fred Armisen in "New York Underground with Trevor Dix," a sketch/short film from the 19 Oct. 2008 episode of Saturday Night Live. The video (which was directed by Noah Baumbach, surprisingly enough) parodies the breathless way some UK music writers talk about "underground" music.

Indie label Drag City released Rainhorn's "Wine and Cigarettes" as a 7" in 2014.

Bonus fake band content: In the sketch, Trevor (Bill Hader) mentions other performers who have graced the stage at the Kennel Club, including:

• Rowboat
• The Villemin Twins
• The U-Turn Committee
• Science Finger
