Tompaulin
Tompaulin were an indie pop band formed in Blackburn, Lancashire, England in 1999, and named after the Irish poet, critic, and lecturer Tom Paulin.
The band initially comprised Stacey McKenna (vocals), Simon "Tap" Trought (guitar), Jamie Holman (bass), and Ciaron Melia (drums), although the line-up changed several times with other members including Amos Memon, Katie Grocott, Giles Cooke, and Lee Davies.〔Strong, Martin C. (2003) "Tompaulin", in ''The Great Indie Discography'', Canongate, ISBN 1-84195-335-0〕 The band released five singles on the Action Records, Track & Field, and Ugly Man labels, before the release of their debut album, ''The Town and the City'' in 2001.〔 The album was called "amazingly self-assured, confident and among the best releases of 2001" by ''Flak'' magazine.〔Wittmershaus, Eric (2001) "(Tompaulin ''The Town and the City'' )", ''Flak''〕 The band were often compared to Belle & Sebastian, and their music was described by Kitty Empire in the ''NME'' as "equal parts beguiling and entertaining",〔Kitty Empire (2001) "(Tompaulin: It's a Girl's World )", ''NME'', January 18, 2001〕〔Clancy, Ben (2001) "(Tompaulin/Kicker/The Gospel Oak: London Aldgate East Arts Cafe )", ''NME'', January 11, 2001〕 while The Times described them as "exactly the right balance between grim reality and the chord sequences that lift you out of it".〔Edwards, Mark (2005) "(Tompaulin: Into the Black )", ''The Times'', january 9, 2005〕 A further single followed on Track & Field in 2002, and the band went on to release two further albums on the label before splitting up.
The band recorded two sessions for John Peel's BBC Radio 1 show, in 2000 and 2001.〔(Tompaulin ) at the BBC's ''Keeping It Peel'' site〕
