Lady Pank is a Polish rock band, started in 1981 in Wrocław[1] by Jan Borysewicz and Andrzej Mogielnicki. One of the most popular groups in history of Polish rock. Its first hit was Mała Lady Punk ("Little Lady Punk").

Lady Pank garnered some attention in the United States in 1985, when MTV placed the video for the band's single "Minus Zero" on rotation.[2] The title was somewhat changed for the English language release; the original Polish title Mniej niż zero means "less than zero".

The video for one of the band's greatest hits Zawsze Tam Gdzie Ty is set on Chicago's 'L', the Quincy Station in particular.
