Sonic Assassins

Band, GB
Rock

A short-lived side project by Hawkwind members Dave Brock and Robert Calvert, formed with the specific notion of playing live in the south west of england, which was where Brock and Calvert were living at the time. The line-up was completed by Ark (and future Hawkwind) members Harvey Bainbridge, Martin Griffin and Paul Hayles and only played one gig before becoming Hawkwind once more.
