Who is Thighpaulsandra?

Thighpaulsandra is a Welsh experimental musician and multi-instrumentalist known mostly for performing on synthesizers and keyboards. As Tim Lewis, he began his career working with Julian Cope. A collaboration with Cope in 1993 followed, as the experimental duo Queen Elizabeth. This project completed just the two albums, Queen Elizabeth and Elizabeth Vagina, each containing extremely long spacey tracks of between 20–47 minutes in duration.

In 1999 he also became a member of the experimental band Coil. He has subsequently released several solo albums.
