1980s Australian band Flowers had a hit single Icehouse, from their first album, Icehouse, and when they went for the international market and needed an edgier name chose … Icehouse.
George Strait’s road band - who also play without him - is called “The Ace in the Hole Band” and they played in the studio for George’s song “Ace in the Hole.”
“I’m A Boinger” by Billy and the Boingers, of Bloom County fame. Yeah, it counts, because the book actually included a free little record with the song on it (the flip side was “U Stink But I U”). So, real song.
