Dr. Strangely Strange were an experimental Irish folk group, formed in Dublin, Ireland, in 1967 by Tim Booth (born 6 September 1943), vocals and guitar, and Ivan Pawle (born 17 August 1943). Booth and Pawle soon teamed with multi-instrumentalist Tim Goulding, at that time an aspiring painter, and percussionist/vocalist Caroline "Linus" Greville, and began living and rehearsing in a house owned by Goulding's girlfriend, backing vocalist "Orphan Annie" Mohan, which its tenants nicknamed "The Orphanage". After signing with the Incredible String Band's producer and manager Joe Boyd, Dr. Strangely Strange debuted in 1969 with Kip of the Serenes. The album was produced by Boyd. While on tour with Fotheringay, they enlisted drummer Neil Hopwood, and later in the year appeared on the Incredible String Band's Changing Horses album.
