- Douglas Hart was the original bassist and a founding member of the Scottish band The Jesus and Mary Chain, and played with the group from 1984 to 1991. While in the band he became known as a music video director, which he continued to do after leaving the band. Hart is memorable for wearing black sunglasses and usually playing with fewer than four strings on his bass guitar. He stated that appearing in the music videos for JAMC was tantamount to torture, and he looked bored in the few studio videos he was in. Hart went on to found his own video company and has directed over 80 music videos, and the film Brazil 70, The Sexiest Kick Off for BBC Television. The videos include many for Creation Records, such as My Bloody Valentine's "You Made Me Realise" and "Feed Me with Your Kiss", and he directed concert videos for the Stone Roses, including Live Blackpool. He also directed For Lovers for Wolfman, featuring Pete Doherty and The Libertines' "Can't Stand Me Now", three promos for Babyshambles including "Killamangiro" and "Delivery", as well as directing numerous videos for Primal Scream (including the "Screamadelica" video album) and six for Paul Weller. He also worked as producer for Jesse Garon and The Desperadoes. In 2007, he took up the bass guitar again and played with Sian Alice Group, touring with Spiritualized. More recently, in early 2009 Douglas directed the music video for The Horrors' new single, "Sea Within A Sea" as well as Pet Shop Boys' "Did You See Me Coming?".
