Although Tom Hull was born in Chatham, it was his move to London, and taking on the performance name of Kid Harpoon that would earn him enough exposure to promote a handful of single and EP releases that would be critically well-received. Harpoon released his first single, "Riverside," in 2006 on the Brikabrak label, and soon followed the seven incher with an EP entitled The First EP. A second EP, similarly -- and obviously -- titled as the first, The Second EP earned him even more attention, and his live shows were fleshed out with a full band. That band, called the Powers That Be (Clayton Boothroyd, Tom Bonner, Jon Jackson, Florian Lunaire, and Mr. Squeaky), also teamed up with Harpoon in the studio to work on his debut album, which was due in the spring of 2008.
