The Servants were an indie band formed in 1985 in Hayes, Middlesex, England by singer-songwriter David Westlake.[1] The band was the original home of Luke Haines.

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.[2]
