"The Ingenues, an all-girls band and vaudeville act, serenading the cows in the University of Wisconsin-Madison Dairy Barn in a scientific test of whether the cows would give more milk to the soothing strains of music."

Watch them in this Vitaphone clip swinging in 1928 in Band Beautiful. Can you spot my Grandmother?
