The Wonderful Grand Band was a music and comedy group from Newfoundland and Labrador. Its members included:
*Ron Hynes – lead vocals (1978-1983)
*Sandy Morris – guitars and dobro (1978-1983)
*Ian Perry – bass (1978-1983)
*Kelly Russell – fiddle (1978-1980)

*Paul "Boomer" Stamp – drums (?-1983)
*Rocky Wiseman – drums (1978-?)

The group had a short-lived eponymous television musical variety show on CBC, airing from between 1980 and 1983. The show starred Hynes, Morris, Perry, Simmons, Snyder, and Wiseman (later replaced by Stamp), as well as CODCO comedians Greg Malone and Tommy Sexton. The show combined original and traditional music with topical comedy sketches and satire, some of which was directed at the CBC itself.
