About Elmer Fudd

Elmer Fudd started life as a band named Portrait around 1970. The band's original lineup included Benny White (vocals), Keith Mansfield (bass), Philip Donnelly (guitar), Jimmy Mahon (drums) and Jody Pollard (guitar). In 1971, they changed their name to Elmer Fudd and John Donnelly replaced Jimmy on drums. The only other change that would occur was when Dave "Mojo" Lennox (keyboards) replaced Philip Donnelly who left to play in Donovan's touring band. They had same management as Thin Lizzy in the early days and toured supporting Thin Lizzy in 1971. Philip Donnelly and John Donnelly played in Gary Moore's band in the early 70s. The band shortened their name to just Fudd and moved to the UK but eventually split in 1974. Benny White and Dave Lennox teamed up with Thin Lizzy members in 1972 to record a Deep Purple tribute album as Funky Junction.
