Carl Wayne
{
Colin David Tooley (18 August 1943 – 31 August 2004), better known as Carl Wayne, was an English singer and actor. He is best remembered as the lead singer of The Move, a group that he co-founded in 1965. He sings lead on several of the band's hits, such as "Curly" (in which he also plays sitar), "Flowers in the Rain", "I Can Hear the Grass Grow", and "Night of Fear".
Wayne was born and raised in Birmingham and entered the music business playing bass guitar. However, he switched to vocals and formed the G-Men, but later joined The Vikings (later Carl Wayne and the Vikings), a band which also included Ace Kefford and Bev Bevan. Kefford and Trevor Burton formed a group, The Move, which Wayne, Bevan, and Roy Wood would join, hitting huge success within the band. He left in 1970, and pursued a cabaret career with slight success.
Wayne notably played Tom-Tom in several episodes of Emu's TV programmes, such as the Christmas special from 1977. In 2000, he joined The Hollies, and performed with them until his death in 2004.
