Thompson Twins' Tom Bailey

About

For many, Thompson Twins’ cool snyth sound was the soundtrack to their lives in the eighties. The latest Thompson Twins’ Tom Bailey live performances have received ecstatic audience receptions, cementing an ever-growing fanbase loyal and new.

This year, Tom completed a mini-world tour visiting countries he’d never performed in before for the first time, he also joined forces with The Human League this Summer for a series of festivals across the UK which showcased the very best of British synth pop. Tom and his band Charlotte Raven (vocals/keyboards/cello), Paulina Szczepaniak (vocals/drums) and Alice Offley (vocals/bass/keyboards) received a standing ovation on every date.

In October 2025 BMG release a new best of album Industry and Seduction - A Thompson Twins Collection in 3CD and 2 vinyl LP formats.

Neil Arthur now tours as Blancmange, long-time friends of Tom Bailey & a fellow artist from the Eighties synth pop scene and arts culture. With four top 20 singles including the highly acclaimed ‘Living On A Ceiling’ the band were an integral part of British musical history from that era. Accomplished wordsmiths with ironic, stylish videos, Blancmange, The Twins and their contemporaries were the epitome of 80’s cool!
