Bio:
"Indian attempted a certain kind of studied art rock, a bit like Television meets Lou Reed.
When it came off it was excellent. Martin Harte wrote solid lyrics, and in a way,
Reverb, Absolute Zero and Indian were all
vehicles for his songwriting."
Indian were active for an incredibly long time, doing sporadic gigs. At one point they
changed their name to The Pink Spiders.
No relation to the showband who recorded for Hawk Records.
