The Derelicts were a London-based "[activist] R&B band" active from 1974–1976, well known on the London pub rock/squat rock circuit,[1] consisting of Barbara Gogan, Richard Williams, Susan Gogan, and John Studholme, amongst others.

When the band split up, the former members went on to start two other bands - Barbara Gogan and Williams joined the not-yet-named The Passions, formed by songwriter and bassist Claire Bidwell, and Susan Gogan and Studholme formed pragVEC.[2] Bass guitarist Marion Fudger went on to join The Art Attacks.[2]
