  • Nigel Harrison is a musician, and best known as the bass player of the power pop/new wave band, Blondie. In the early 1970s Harrison lived in Princes Risborough near Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire. He was the bassist for the local band Farm, and later recorded and toured with Silverhead from 1972 to 1974. He joined Blondie in 1977 and stayed with the band until their single "War Child" was released in 1982. From 1982 to 1984 he was a member of the band Chequered Past, which also included two of his former bandmates: Des Barres, from Silverhead, and Clem Burke, from Blondie. They released an eponymous album in 1984. When Blondie started to talk about re-forming in 1996, Harrison was initially asked to rejoin the group. He recorded demo tracks with the band for the album No Exit (1998), but was dropped from the band before the record was finished. He and another excluded former member, Frank Infante, brought a lawsuit over the dispute, but were unsuccessful. He is now the bass player for The Grabs, whose album Sex, Fashion And Money was released in November 2005. Harrison was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on March 13, 2006, along with the other members of Blondie.
