Artists who have to put the country in their band name

Just listening to the Ugly EP recommended in this week’s new releases thread, and finding it funny that they have to call themselves Ugly (UK), because clearly they aren’t the first band to ever have the idea of calling themselves Ugly

What other examples are there?

The London Suede

Charlatans UK

Bought a copy of Dog Man Star from Evil Jeff Bezos’ online bookstore the other day and he sent me the London Suede version. Fuming.

This is clever because there is a Swedish band called Air France as well as the French band Air
