Thomas Dolby
After being blinded by science in the ’80s, synth-pop pioneer Thomas Dolby has leered at the music business from different angles. In addition to founding a couple of successful tech businesses—including one that pioneered the polyphonic ringtone—he’s made records more or less in the same quirky vein. His last studio effort was 1994’s Gate To The Mind’s Eye, but a smattering of live releases and compilations, including the Live At SXSW concert disc with his Jazz Mafia Horns backing group, have kept Dolby visible.
