As a teenager, David Gray formed a band called The Prawns, who were inspired by The Cramps and played a nine-minute cover of The Who’s “Won’t Get Fooled Again.”

∙ Before breaking through with the album White Ladder, he had released three full-length albums on major labels.

∙ He provided vocals for “Illuminate,” a 2001 single by electronic duo Orbital.
∙ Gray has twice won the prestigious Ivor Novello Award for Best Song Musically & Lyrically—for “Babylon” and “The Other Side.”
