Oakland, San Francisco CA, United States (1993 – 1994)

There is more than one artist with this name:

1) Indian Summer was an early 70s progressive (1970 — 1971) band from Coventry, England.

2) Indian Summer was a band from Oakland, California. They existed during 1993 and 1994.

3) Indian Summer — eventually — was a Norwegian punk rock band that existed in early 00s.




Indian Summer, Coventry —
They released a self-titled album in 1971. Their style is proto-progressive, similar in some ways to early Camel.

Line up 1970 - 1971. :

Bob Jackson - keyboards, vocal

Colin Williams - guitar, vocal
Malcolm Harker - bass guitar, vocal
Paul Hooper - drums, percussion

These four musicians came out of Coventry and made one sole album released on the rare Neon Records (other releases of interest to progheads on that label would be SPRING, TONTON MACOUTE) that did not manage to promote their artists correctly, although INDIAN SUMMER had the same management as BLACK SABBATH. Their album consists of fairly long numbers with much KB-driven hard rock and lots of instrumental interplay— a typical release of the times. Although the band could be placed among the likes of Mk2, PURPLE or URIAH HEEP, they manage to have a sound of their own. This is a basic quartet - HARKER on bass, HOOPER on drums, Bob JACKSON’s KB & vocals, and Colin WILLIAMS’s guitar - but they have enough tricks up their sleeves to keep you interested and enthused throughout the album.

    What the guy under me said. Most probable of all is that they named Indian Summer after the phenomenon that goes by the same name, which far outdates both the Doors song and the rest. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_summer
