Career

Ad Nauseam (1980s)

Following some early cassette experiments, Jon Poole's first proper band as writer and performer was the

. Ad Nauseam released one cassette-only album, ''4 Little Boys'', but split up a short time later after Poole's recruitment into

. Poole has since expressed interest in an Ad Nauseam reunion, saying "I'd really like to do it if only to get it right this time but I don't know if it'll ever happen. I don't even know if it'd be the same line-up. Me and Bob would be there of course as it was always our band. I had a brief thought of doing a set of Ad Nauseam songs with some more obscure Cardiacs songs chucked in such as "Bitter Pill" "Big Noise in a Toy World" or "Stench of Honey" but I'm not sure if that might just be naff."

Cardiacs and Tim Smith (1991–2004, 2006, 2023–)

Poole's work with Ad Nauseam (plus relentless "pestering", as a fan) had brought him to the attention of

and their leader Tim Smith. On hearing of guitarist Christian 'Bic' Hayes departure from Cardiacs in May 1991, Poole promptly put himself forward as a replacement candidate and was recruited into the band later in the year. (His Ad Nauseam bandmate Bob Leith would also join the band as drummer, replacing the outgoing Dominic Luckman in December 1993. Poole and Leith can be spotted in the crowd during Cardiacs' Salisbury Arts Centre gig on 30 June 1990, as featured in the '' All That Glitters Is a Mares Nest'' video release.) Poole stayed in Cardiacs for the next thirteen years, playing second guitar and singing backing vocals (plus playing keyboards on record). He also played some of the group's bass guitar parts both on record and live (when covering for Cardiacs bass player Jim Smith). He was noted for his parodic

During his Cardiacs stint, Poole also participated in a pair of Cardiacs-related projects, covering on keyboards for William D. Drake at a couple of Sea Nymphs live performances and playing guitar in an early 90's lineup of the Christian Hayes-led thrash band Panixphere (alongside Tim Smith on bass guitar). Poole and Hayes would regroup in 2019 as Panixphere once again, aided by Bob Leith on drums. Poole left Cardiacs amicably in 2004 due to other musical commitments, and has remained a friend and fan. He was present in the crowd for the live performances collected on Cardiacs' ''The Special Garage Concerts'', recorded in 2003 during replacement guitarist

guitarist Clive Giblin was hired in the role – and was subsequently drawn into a Giblin songwriting project "specifically designed to put the listener on edge." This project became Two Worlds Collide, which Poole contributed to using virtually every instrument he played (initially guitar and keyboards, followed by bass guitar and finally, in a later line-up) drums). Two Cardiacs drummers – Bob Leith and Dominic Luckman – also played drums for the project at various times. During Poole's tenure, Two Worlds Collide recorded the ''Sympathetic Storm'' album (eventually released in 2006 by the Le Cluricaun label.) but did not play live due to the members' other commitments. Although Poole left the band during the 1990s, Two Worlds Collide (currently managed by former Public Image Ltd publicist Helen Maleed) has continued with a lineup of Giblin, Leith and Marina Young, working on a second album and live performances.

Ablemesh and Dr Brighton (1990s)

While still a member of Cardiacs, Poole also played and worked with Ablemesh, a Milton Keynes art-rock band centred on singer/publicist Gordon Glass, guitarist/lyricist Sean Walmsley and drummer/photographer Wig Worland. (Other members of the band during its 1991–1996 lifespan included drummers Bob Leith and Mark Turner, bass players Andy Allum, Sujay Jayaram and Allan Thompson, and keyboard player Mike Turbutt.) Fiercely independent, Ablemesh practised a multimedia approach to their combined art and explored various new ways of reaching an audience. This included a distribution experiment anticipating the later practise of viral distribution, in which the band's 1992 ''Shareware'' EP was produced in an extremely limited run of three CDs only, with the CD's recipients simply invited to copy the music onto cassette free of charge and to pass it on. The band repeated the experiment with the follow-up EP ''Fecund''. They also explored a related promotion idea by exploiting a loophole in the law which effectively allowed them to place dummy Ablemesh cassette releases on the shelves of the record departments of mainstream retailers such as Woolworths (each dummy copy contained an insert telling the reader where they can get mail order copies). Poole's main involvement with Ablemesh was in 1995, when he played bass guitar with the band, apparently "reinvented" many of their songs and produced their album ''Present Imperfect''. The latter was recorded entirely on an analogue cassette 4-track machine using Poole's determined and innovative production skills. The album remained unreleased until 2006 when a remastered version was made available as a download via the Ablemesh homepage. In 1995, Poole and Walmsley formed Dr Brighton, a more straightforward rock band with punk and pop influences. Poole fronted the band, sharing guitar and vocal duties with Walmsley (with whom he also wrote the songs). The rest of the band were current or former Ablemesh members – Allum on bass guitar, Turbutt on keyboards and percussion and Leith on drums. The band recorded a number of tracks and played live, but did not officially release any albums or singles. A 1995 self-titled album, ripped straight from cassette, was made available by the band on SoundCloud in 2016.

Silver Ginger 5, the Wildhearts, Ginger & the Sonic Circus (2000–2005 plus intermittent reunions)

In 2000, due to Cardiacs' influence on (and friendly relationship with)

, Poole began to work with Wildhearts leader

on the latter's spin-off project Silver Ginger 5. Poole played on the '' Black Leather Mojo'' album (produced by Tim Smith) and joined the Silver Ginger 5 live band as bass player. It was on the first day of Silver Ginger 5 rehearsals that Poole gained his nickname of "Random Jon". Poole's work with Silver Ginger 5 led directly to him joining

in 2003 (replacing Danny McCormack on bass). This move ultimately led to him leaving Cardiacs in 2004 due to the demands of the Wildhearts' touring schedule. When the Wildhearts split up again in 2005, Poole continued to play as part of Ginger's band Ginger & the Sonic Circus and on Ginger's solo tours and albums. Poole performed on Ginger's 2007 ''Yoni'' album (with production and musical contributions by Tim Smith). Poole rejoined The Wildhearts in December 2012 when the Wildhearts reformed for Ginger's annual Birthday Bash, and would continue to play live with them until 2017. Poole was once again an official touring and recording member of the band circa 2024, and played on the album '' Satanic Rites of the Wildhearts'', released in March 2025. Poole also contributed to Mutation (an industrial rock/noise project formed by Ginger in 2012 in collaboration with his frequent solo project drummer Dean "Denzel" Pearson and Scott Lee Andrews of Exit International). This group simultaneously released the albums ''The Frankenstein Effect'' and ''Error 500''. Poole contributed guitar, bass guitar and vocals to the project, alongside other contributors including

Other collaborations (Crayola Lectern, La Momo, Celebricide, The Lotus Eaters)

Poole has been involved in several Brighton-based collaborations with fellow psychedelic/experimental rock musician Chris Anderson. Since 2008, Poole has been part of Anderson's psychedelic rock project Crayola Lectern, in which he plays Casio synthesizer. Since 2009, Poole has played drums for La Momo (which features Anderson on guitar). During 2006, Poole drummed for Celebricide, which featured two of his future La Momo bandmates (both Chris Anderson and Sadie Fredericks). In June 2009, Poole announced that he had joined the cult 1980s indie rock band the Lotus Eaters as bass player. He performed at their concert at the Liverpool Philharmonic on 25 July that year. In April 2014, a PledgeMusic preorder campaign was launched for a new project called the Dowling Poole, a power pop band whose influences are quoted as 10cc, the Beatles and XTC, among others. The project sees Poole teaming up with Willie Dowling, who had been the frontman of Honeycrack and Jackdaw4, and had played as a session keyboardist with the Wildhearts in the mid-1990s. The album ''Bleak Strategies'' was released on 11 August 2014 through 369Music, to highly positive reviews. In 2016, the Dowling Poole released another well-received album, ''One Hyde Park''. On the studio recordings, Poole is responsible for bass and drums, and also contributes vocals and guitar along with Dowling. In 2014, Poole replaced

Musical style and influences

Poole's projects tend to draw from or combine punk rock, progressive/art rock and hard rock, mostly due to his manic performance style, punk-style vocals and dual interest in complexity and raw riffs. He has also commented "I find beautiful perfection repellent." However, Poole has cited a wide range of influences affecting his music, starting with the jazz which his family were all interested in (and played). As a listener, he subsequently became interested in (in rapid succession), contemporary disco and soul, New Wave and 1980s synth pop, and 1960s pop. This was followed by a period "catching up with" punk and post-punk, followed by ska, 2-Tone music and
