Servants

The Servants were an indie band formed in 1985 in Hayes, Middlesex, England by singer-songwriter David Westlake. The band was the original home of Luke Haines (later of the Auteurs and Black Box Recorder) and his girlfriend at that time, Alice Readman, who were both members of the band and she later joined her boyfriend in the Auteurs before splitting up with him.
The band’s Small Time album was well received on its 2012 release, more than twenty years after its 1991-recording. The belated release followed the inclusion of 1990’s Disinterest in Mojo magazine’s 2011 list of the greatest British indie records of all time.
==Links to Peel==
Peel discovered the group in the spring of 1986 and impressed by their material, invited the group to do a session for his show in that year, where they performed four tracks. After 1987, Peel seemed to have lost interest in the group's music.
