CCR was literally just John Fogerty. The band was basically just his live touring band.

>>127736203
They were once a band but then it became just one guy and he didn't change the name. He has a band when he plays live though. As for what you're asking. Marilyn Manson and Car Seat Headrest are sort of the opposite. Will Toledo was once the sole member and then Car Seat became a band. Marilyn Manson and the Spooky Kids were once the name of the band then they changed it to be about one guy.
