Thighpaulsandra (Tim Lewis) is a Welsh Experimental musician known mostly for performing on Synthesizer s and Keyboard s. Thighpaulsandra has worked with groups such as Coil , Queen Elizabeth , Spiritualized and Julian Cope as well as releasing solo albums. CAREER His influences are Krautrock and improvised electronic music. He has worked with Julian Cope on various albums starting as an engineer with Cope in 1987 on the song ''Transporting''. His influence also aided Cope's ''Autogeddon'', ''20 Mothers'' and ''Interpreter'' albums. He also formed the band Queen Elizabeth with Cope, releasing two lengthy albums. Thighpaulsandra has also produced and appeared on other records made by Anal , RocketGoldStar , and Brain Donor . In 1997 he joined the band Spiritualized for a U.S. tour and survived the cuts to the band made shortly thereafter. He can be heard on the studio records ''Let It Come Down'' and ''Amazing Grace''. He also joined Coil the next year and performed on such albums as '' Astral Disaster '', '' Musick To Play In The Dark Vol. 1 '' and '' Musick To Play In The Dark Vol. 2 ''. During the same period, Thighpaulsandra also worked on The Waterboys ' album '' A Rock In The Weary Land ''. The artwork for his ''Double Vulgar'' album caused some controversy with several printers not willing to reproduce the homoerotic imagery. ''Double Vulgar II'' was delayed, possibly for the same reason, along with the passing of friend and colleague John Balance . His first three solo releases came out via the Coil label, Eskaton . John Balance provided vocals for Thighpaulsandra's first release '' Some Head EP '', and Peter Christopherson designed the artwork for the ''I, Thighpaulsandra'' double album and for the following "Double Vulgar" albums. London based Austrian photographer Ruth Bayer took the front cover image for "I, Thighpaulsandra". Bayer was the official photographer for many of the first London Coil shows. He currently remains in and still works with Spiritualized and Julian Cope , while finishing off future releases for the now defunct Coil . He has also recorded with Cyclobe and The Waterboys .
