Yeti are an English rock band fronted by John Hassall, formerly of The Libertines. He met former bassist Brendan Kersey, lead guitarist Andy Deian Jung and guitarist Harmony Walliams (real name Mark Underwood) through mutual friends, and the lineup was completed when drummer Graham Blacow responded to a classified ad. In 2007 Brendan Kersey left the band to join The Early Years and Hassall took over as bassist. Image File history File links Flag_of_England. ...

Hassall writes most of Yeti's songs, but Walliams has also penned several and sings lead on his own songs.

Their debut single Never Lose Your Sense of Wonder was released in March 2005 and reached number 36 in the British charts.

The band withdrew into semi-mythical obscurity after a lengthy legal battle with crooked management and a string of ill-fated European dates with Oasis where Yeti failed to make it to any venue earlier than 5 minutes before being due on stage.

The band released an EP, One Eye on the Banquet, at the end of October 2006. They are working on an album.
