Restless is a British rockabilly band formed in 1978. The group got their name from the song "Restless" by Carl Perkins.[1] The band performed their first gig in Sudbury in 1980, with Mark Harman as front-man on guitar and vocals, and Ben Cooper on drums; the two shared songwriting duties. After the second album was released in 1984, the band re-organised, dropping Mark's brother Paul on bass to be replaced by Jeff Bayly.[2] The band are credited with being pioneers of neo-rockabilly.[3]
