Os Pixies são uma banda de alt rock formada em Boston, Massachusetts, Estados Unidos em 1986. O grupo separou-se em 1993 por divergências mas voltou-se a juntar em 2004. Black Francis, Joey Santiago, Kim Deal e Dave Lovering são os únicos membros do grupo em toda a sua história.
Sua música foi muito influenciada pelo punk e surf rock, e embora fosse bastante melódica, também era capaz de conter material mais pesado. Francis era o principal compositor e vocalista do grupo.
