Tom Bailey: New Album and joining Aha and Culture Club on their tours

Tom Bailey’s long awaited debut solo album

 ‘Science Fiction’ will be released in July 2018. 

Whilst Tom has been prolific in the genres of dub, world music and audio visual projects over the last 2 decades this will be the Thompson Twins front man’s first ‘pop’ record since Babble’s 1996 release ‘Ether’.

Tom Bailey, front man from The Thompson Twins, releases ’Science Fiction’ available to pre-order now.


"Hello Everyone,

Welcome to the PledgeMusic page for my new album ‘Science Fiction’. I so much enjoyed playing concerts around the world over the last couple of years, that I began working behind the scenes on writing, recording and mixing the songs in this collection. As you know, I have concentrated on other areas of music for the past couple of decades – but I find it incredibly rewarding to be making pop music again. There’s something so special about the way this kind of music works and, for me, it’s like finding a long lost friend.



So I must thank you all for your amazing support: it’s your enthusiasm which has brought me back to this point. I hope you enjoying listening to it as much as I have loved making it.



With best wishes to all,



Tom"
