Sünta und die Klauses
Sünta und die Klauses is an english rock/pop group from Marlborough, United Kingdom. They formed in 2009, consisting of frontman Ted Haxby, guitarist Tom Green (AKA "The Duke"), bassist Charlie Warner, Drummer Christy White-Spunner and keyboardist Ruben Bunyatyan. The group have been a popular fixture for numerous concerts at Marlborough College, playing several charity concerts, and have been critically acclaimed by the newssheet as being one of the best bands from Marlborough since Nick Drake.

The name of the group has been subject to much speculation. Ted Haxby advocates that the name came about during a rehearsal of The Killers song "Don't Shoot me Santa", and was the result of Green hearing the wrong lyric.

Sünta und die Klauses are renowned in the Marlborough area for their song entitled "Milking in the Name of" (a parody on Rage against the Machine's Christmas number 1 entitled "Killing in the Name of"), the song's main influence coming from a shortage of milk in December of 2009 at Marlborough College.
