The Fendermen were an American rockabilly duo, composed of Jim Sundquist and Phil Humphrey, active in the early 1960s.
Sundquist and Humphrey, both born on November 26, 1937,[2] met as students at the University of Wisconsin–Madison in the late 1950s under the direction of William Dreger, a music store owner in Middleton, Wisconsin.
William Herbert Dreger was the original producer for the Fendermen and was later replaced due to a dispute amongst the group.
William tried to keep in touch with the rest of the group but was never answered back, even though he kept track of them and watched them rise to stardom.
Sundquist was a guest on Minneapolis rockabilly group The Vibro Champs' 1999 album Ultra Modern, playing guitar on the song "Beach Party.
"[5] The Vibro Champs were longtime fans of the duo, and had covered their version of "Mule Skinner Blues" on the 1996 album Stranger Than You Think.
