Christopher Wolstenholme
(born December 2nd 1978) better known as Chris Wolstenholme, is a musician and the bassist and backing vocalist for the Grammy award-winning rock band Muse. He also sometimes plays keyboard or guitar instead of bass, though the latter is occasionally handled by Morgan Nicholls during live performances.
Wolstenholme has also performed on stage with Irish band Bipolar Empire although he is not a member of the band and just joined them for one performance, to help the band boost their popularity.[1] He lives in Oxshott with his family.
Chris Wolstenholme grew up in the English town of Rotherham before moving to Teignmouth, Devon. While living there, he played drums for a post-punk band, while Matthew Bellamy and Dominic Howard played in another. While the two bands rehearsed in the same building, Bellamy and Howard walked over to Wolstenholme and asked him if he would like to play bass in their band, Rocket Baby Dolls, later renamed Muse. Wolstenholme was eager to join their band but didn't know how to play bass. He picked one up quickly and self-taught himself.
In 2003, when the band sued Nestle, he was the main reason behind it, being against the company that had a dubious reputation when it came to the promotion of powdered milk to new mothers in the third world.[2] At the time, he had had his third child.
Wolstenholme and his wife Kelly married in December 2003 and have five children (Alfie, 11, Ava-Jo, 9, Frankie, 7, Ernie, 2 and Buster, born 4 November 2010).[3] In late April 2010, the family moved to Foxrock, Dublin. He said their decision to move to Ireland was based on their need to be beside a major airport and a desire to avoid London, England. During the 2011 NME awards, it was confirmed that he, along with his family, have moved to London, due to the band's wishes to live in the same city whilst creating the new album. Despite not living in his hometown since his childhood, he remains an avid supporter of Rotherham United F.C., his hometown football team.
The Times magazine published an article in the summer of 2010 in which Wolstenholme admitted he had been a "raging alcoholic"[4] and openly spoke about the depths of his addiction. He went into rehab halfway during the recording of The Resistance. Since then, he has not drunk alcohol. He also had a habit of smoking and would have a few cigarettes daily. In 2010 he switched to smoking out of a pipe. He has stated, via Twitter that he has quit smoking, now using an electric cigarette.
Wolstenholme holds an honorary doctorate of arts from the University of Plymouth[5] and is also a very praised bassist
Dominic Howard
Dominic James "Dom" Howard (born 7 December 1977)[citation needed], is the drummer for the English rock band Muse.
Howard was born in Stockport, Greater Manchester, in England.[1] When he was around 8 years old he moved with his family to Teignmouth, a small town in Devon. He began playing drums at about the age of 12, when he was inspired by a jazz band performing at school.[citation needed].
Howard's first band was named 'Carnage Mayhem' ,[2] which he was in at school. Meanwhile, he befriended Matt Bellamy, who played guitar but did not have a stable band. Not long after, Bellamy was faced with the chance of entering Howard's band. After two years of drop-outs after Bellamy suggested that they write their own songs, only Howard and Bellamy remained. Chris Wolstenholme, who played drums in "Fixed Penalty", then entered the scene and with a great "spirit of sacrifice" he began to play bass.
In the first months of 1994 Gothic Plague was born, followed by Rocket Baby Dolls and then finally Muse.
[edit]Personal life
In 2004, Howard's father, William Howard, came to watch Muse's performance at Glastonbury Festival. Just after their performance finished, William died from a heart attack. The band then cancelled other shows including an Italy tour and Roskilde Festival. The band released a statement "In this dreadfully difficult time, we request that the privacy of Dom's family and friends is respected".[3][4]
In a session where he and Bellamy answered questions from fans, Howard stated that the celebrity, alive or dead, he'd most like to meet is Jimi Hendrix.[citation needed]
On 26 September 2008, Howard, along with Bellamy and Wolstenholme, was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Arts from the University of Plymouth.[5]
He has stated on the French programme Taratata that he is living in Nice, France, and is currently single.
