Bethnal were a British punk band formed in 1972. In 1978, they released two albums on Vertigo Records: Dangerous Times, produced by Kenny Laguna; and Crash Landing; produced by Jon Astley and Phil Chapman, with special thanks to Pete Townshend. They supported Hawkwind on their 1977 UK tour and, after disbanding, went on to form Hawkwind frontman Robert Calvert’s backing band for his 1981 album Hype.
Key members were George Csapo (vocals, keyboards, violin), Pete Dowling (drums), Nick Michaels (guitar) and Everton Williams (bass).
