Hefner were a British indie rock band formed by Darren Hayman in east London in 1992, and active until 2002. Since then, they have played together only once, for a tribute to the DJ John Peel, who was a supporter of theirs. During their career, they were referred to as "The Peel House Band," and "Britain’s Largest Small Band."
