Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:More citations needed Шаблон:Infobox musical artist Druid were a 1970s progressive rock band from England, and initially came to public attention by winning a 1974 unsigned band contest by Melody Maker magazine.[1] The band went on to perform on The Old Grey Whistle Test and to record two albums. Their sound was notably influenced by Yes.

After the demise of Druid, Neil Brewer and Dane Stevens formed the Never Never Band with a more commercial approach.
