Living in a Box is a British band founded in 1985. They are best known for their eponymous debut single, produced by Richard James Burgess. The group currently consists of founding members Anthony “Tich“ Critchlow (drums) and Marcus Vere (synthesizers) along with vocalist Kenny Thomas.
Living in a Box were formed in 1985 in Manchester. The group named themselves after the first song they had recorded together in the studio. It was in fact this song that had brought them together in the first place. Vere and Critchlow were recording the demo version of the tune in a studio also being visited by Richard Darbyshire, an independent recording artist at the time. Richard was invited to join his two future bandmates in the studio to record vocals for the track, and the three officially became a band.
Released two years later, “Living in a Box“ was their most commercially successful single, peaking at #5 on the UK Singles Chart and became the band’s only single to chart in the Top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 in the US.
The lovely red haired back up singer is Tessa Niles.
