Hatfield And The North

Profile:

Hatfield and the North were a great English progressive rock and experimental rock band from the Canterbury scene. The band was initially active between 1972 and 1975 before disbanding and then briefly re-united many years after, once in 1990, and then the second and final time between 2005 and 2006. Aside from progressive rock and experimental rock, the band also incorporated jazz fusion and psychedelic rock into its overall sound.

Formed in November 1972 by Pip Pyle, David Sinclair, Phil Miller and his brother Steve Miller (3), strictly confined to front-room appearances. Pianist Steve left after six weeks and was replaced by organist Dave's cousin Richard Sinclair. Dave stayed until January 1973, when he rejoined Caravan and was replaced by Dave Stewart.

Origin of name - Inspired by the first road sign on the M1 going north from London.
First Public Appearance - Lees Cliff Hall, Folkestone, November 1972.
First Television - Paris, December 1972 with David Sinclair and Robert Wyatt.
