Hatfield and the North were a great English progressive rock and experimental rock band from the Canterbury scene. The band was initially active between 1972 and 1975 before disbanding and then briefly re-united many years after, once in 1990, and then the second and final time between 2005 and 2006. Aside from progressive rock and experimental rock, the band also incorporated jazz fusion and psychedelic rock into its overall sound.
