Indian Summer (British band)
Indian Summer were a British progressive rock band in the early 1970s.

History 
The quartet was formed in Coventry, UK, in 1969. Members were Malcolm Harker on bass, Paul Hooper on drums, Bob Jackson on keyboards and lead vocals and Colin Williams on guitar.

Their manager was Jim Simpson who was managing Black Sabbath at the time. Simpson signed Indian Summer with the same production team to record their first and only album. This self-titled album (Indian Summer) was released two and a half years later, in 1971. Indian Summer disbanded in the beginning of 1972.
