The Walkers were a Danish glam rock ensemble composed of vocalist and songwriter Torben Lendager, guitarist Gert Michelsen, drummer and lyricist Poul Dehnhardt, alongside bassist Jan Kanstrup Hansen. Established in 1968, the group dissolved in 1977 but has reunited multiple times thereafter.

Among their well-known tracks are "Little Kitty," which was reinterpreted in 2000 by the Danish act Creamy, and "Sha-La-La-La-La," a song also covered in 2000 by Vengaboys and previously in 1974 by the Cantopop group the Wynners.
