Teegarden & Van Winkle were composed of Skip Knape (electric organ, organ pedal bass, vocals), and David Teegarden (drums, vocals). Formed in Tulsa, they took their folksy, humorous rock to Detroit.

Their single "God, Love and Rock & Roll" peaked at #22 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1970. At times they worked with Bob Seger, appearing live at gigs and even producing an album together with Seger and guitarist Michael Bruce (Smokin' O.P.'s, 1972).

Teegarden later appeared as the drummer in Bob Seger's Silver Bullet Band, recording four further albums with Seger.

The duo reunited for another album, Radioactive, in 1997.
