Southside of Bombay are a Māori band from New Zealand. They are best known for their single 'What's the Time, Mr Wolf?' which was originally released in 1992. The song was re-released following its appearance in the 1994 film and on the soundtrack of Once Were Warriors,[2] after which it became second best selling New Zealand single that year.[1]

The band was named to signify that there was another world to music outside of Auckland, New Zealand.[3]
