Whoopsadaisies were a short-lived rock band from Dublin, Ireland. They released a 3-track CD single, Forget You, on Hunter S. Records in 1995 and promptly disappeared from the scene. The band's musical style was very similar to other Irish bands of that time, and most closely resembles that of The Cranberries, especially lead-singer Deirde's vocals.

An 11-track album was also recorded, with the working title "Ten Days", along with several demos (two of which were included on the "Forget You" single), but the band were dropped from their label before the album could be released.

Little is known of the individual members of the band since, although bassist Fergus Lenehan has since 2003 toured with Lullaby Crush, a Californian acoustic rock band. Most recently he played bass on "The Time Comes on Humming Tracks" the 2007 release from San Francisco singer/songwriter Kate Isenberg. He is currently playing live with The Kate Isenberg Band.
