The Austin Lounge Lizards are a band from Austin, Texas formed in 1980. The band includes founding members Hank Card, Tom Pittman, and Conrad Deisler, along with Boo Resnick (1994) and Korey Simeone(2003).

The band started out experimenting with folk but was still heavily country in its style, combining the bluegrass form which Pittman was familiar with the progressive-themed folk rock Card and Deisler had been accustomed to. Between the members a large number of different instruments have been played, including a rich variety of string instruments such as the banjo, mandolin, and fiddle.
