Who is Tom Chaplin?

Tom Chaplin, 42, is a singer and songwriter best known as the lead vocalist for Keane.

The son of a headteacher, Tom was born in Hastings, where he played acoustic guitar in a band called The Lotus Eaters, which later changed their name to Keane.

After the name change, Tom switched from guitarist to lead vocalist, occasionally playing the organ and piano on the tracks.

After Keane announced he was taking a break, Tom turned his attention to solo projects – releasing his debut solo album The Wave in October 2016 and his first Christmas album in November 2017.

Away from the set, Tom has struggled with drugs, revealing in 2006 that he was being treated for a drug abuse problem.

But after overcoming a relapse in 2014, Tom said he is happier now than ever with his wife and daughter.

Most recently, he appeared on The Masked Singer as Poodle, saying that he and his wife “love the show”.
