Sheep Dip is a band mentioned in Canadian-American author Gordon Korman's 1984 children's novel No Coins, Please.
Main character Artie Geller, an 11-year-old from Montreal on a summer camp van tour of the USA, creates a pop-up nightclub called "The Pretzel" in Glendale, Colorado while the van tour stops there overnight.
The mysterious pop-up club draws famous clients from all around, including Mike Banshee, lead singer of Sheep Dip.
...a strange-looking man dressed entirely in metallic blue danced his way into the office. "Oh!" gasped Dennis. "You're-you're—" he snapped his fingers. "Mike Banshee, the lead singer of Sheep Dip!"
"Yeah, man. I just want to tell the little boss here that this is truly a cosmic place he's running."
