Dubblehead

Dubblehead are a psychedelic electronic dub trance project based in Devon, UK, fronted by ex-Ozric Tentacles Synthi A player Tom Brooks.
Current and past band members include musician and producer Nigel Shaw (Seventh Wave Music) and DJ, producer and sound system operator Jack Ruskin (previously known as Jack Maclachlan) who also records and performs as Dub Defector.
They are responsible for a number of remixes and co-productions including Gong's Isle of Everywhere, Now Pisces Now's Emotional Exile (with Simon Crowe of The Boomtown Rats), and The Rootsman's Born Bad amongst others.
Tom Brooks still occasionally plays live with the Ozrics (he is also credited on the recent Ozric Tentacles studio album The Floor's Too Far Away) and notably recently played alongside Harry Waters, son of Pink Floyd bass player Roger Waters.
Dubblehead performed at the Glastonbury Festival in 2007. 2008 and 2009, as well as other festivals throughout the south.
A new Dubblehead album, Robots Stole My Groove, appeared in 2008 on the Seventh Wave Music imprint and included contributions from Ed Wynne of the Ozric Tentacles amongst other guests. Two new albums, including a best-of called "Money for old Dub", were released in 2009.
Trivia: Tom Brooks is brother to Basil Brooks of Zorch and Steve Hillage Band fame.
