Tender Trap

About Tender Trap

With Amelia Fletcher's bands, personnel changes tend to require brand new names: Heavenly was basically just Talulah Gosh with a new keyboard player, and when DJ Downfall replaced the late Mathew Fletcher on drums, the group took the new handle Marine Research. Similarly, Tender Trap was simply Marine Research after attrition: Peter Momtchiloff needed to attend to his day job as the philosophy editor at Oxford University Press, while Cathy Rogers was hosting the popular U.S. cable television show Junkyard Wars. This left Fletcher, Rob Pursey, and Downfall, though the lineup did change after the first album, Film Molecules (2002). 6 Billion People (2006) featured Magnetic Fields' Claudia Gonson, while Dansette Dansette (2010) involved Katrina Dixon and Elizabeth Morris. ~ Stewart Mason
