Andromeda were an English hard, progressive and psychedelic rock group, that formed in 1968 out of The Attack.[1] [2][3][4] However, soon after formation, the band changed lineup, and led by John Du Cann a new line-up recorded their eponymous album in 1969 with backing vocals by Eddie Dyche.

The group split upon Du Cann's departure to join Atomic Rooster in 1970.[5]

Du Cann, Hawksworth and Collins played on The Five Day Week Straw People album.
