Tom Bellamy is the multi-instrumentalist responsible for contributing guitar, bass, synthesizer, keyboard, trumpet, programming, samples, melodica, harmonica, percussion, toy piano, bowed guitar, decks, FX/beats, vocals and lyrics in the band The Cooper Temple Clause. Originally the lead guitarist of the band, Bellamy began to experiment with guitar pedals, synthesisers and a variety of other instruments, passing the role of lead guitarist to band mate Dan Fisher. He is also a keen DJ and has remixed several songs by The Cooper Temple Clause as part of his side project, Rhysmix. Following the split of the band, Bellamy has turned his full attention to remixing and djing under the Rhysmix alias. He is currently collaborating with well-known DJ Eddy Temple-Morris, remixing and producing music in the Bleak House, a studio in rural Berkshire that formerly housed The Cooper Temple Clause.

He shares his name with Thomas Bellamy of Here Come the Birds fame, who looks remarkably like the keyboardist from UK group The Kaiser Chiefs.

He wrote the lyrics to ‘Talking To A Brick Wall’, ‘Into My Arms’ and ‘In Your Prime’ for their 2003 album Kick Up The Fire, And Let The Flames Break Loose.

Prior to the release of 2007's Make This Your Own, songs featuring Bellamy on lead vocals tended to be b-sides; however the band's third album saw an increase in the number of album tracks he sang lead vocals on. He takes the role of lead vocals in the following songs;

• ‘All I See Is You’ (with Ben Gautrey)
• 'Connect'
• 'For The Last Time'
• 'House Of Cards'
• 'I Want You To Think I Could Be'
• 'In Your Prime'
• 'Into My Arms'
• 'Isn't It Strange'
• 'My Darling (Nasty Angel)'
• 'Not Quite Enough'
• 'Once More With Feeling'
• 'One Quick Fix'
