Delinquents

Delinquents is a New York group associated with punk, hardcore, rap, hip hop and new wave. The name is used for more than one act, but the New York entry refers to a pre-Heartbreakers Johnny Thunders group.

New York connection

This version of Delinquents is the New York-based group linked to Johnny Thunders before his work with the Heartbreakers. It is identified as a group rather than a solo project.

Other acts using the name

The name also appears on other bands and groups in the record, including a late-1970s post-punk band from Austin, Texas, a hip hop group from Holyoke, Massachusetts, and a UK punk band with Edd Whyte on guitar, Sam Rutland on bass, Sid Mayall on drums and Steve Dior on vocals. Those acts are separate from the New York group.
