Tom Hingley (born 9 July 1965, Abingdon, Oxfordshire, England) is a musician best known as the lead vocalist of the English rock band, Inspiral Carpets.

Life

He moved to Oldham in 1984, formed a band called Too Much Texas, and got a job collecting glasses at The Hacienda, Manchester. He joined the Inspiral Carpets as lead vocalist in 1989. After six successful years, the Inspiral Carpets split in 1995 and Hingley started performing as a solo artist, releasing "Keep Britain Untidy" (2000) and "Soulfire" (2002), released on his own label Newmemorabilia Records. In 2001 Hingley formed the band The Lovers with Steve Hanley and Paul Hanley, both former members of The Fall and Jason Brown and Kelly Wood. The Lovers' first album, "Abba Are The Enemy", was released in 2004. In 2002/2003 Hingley joined a reformed Inspiral Carpets for two sell-out UK tours and again in 2006/2007. His second album with the Lovers, "Highlights", was released in March 2008.
