Nick Sanderson (22 April 1961 – 8 June 2008) was an English musician, most famous for being the front man in Earl Brutus, and a short-term member of the Scottish alternative rock band The Jesus and Mary Chain.
Sanderson started his professional career in the early 1980s by becoming the drummer in the Sheffield post-punk group Clock DVA.
The band eventually signed a deal with the Island Records subsidiary Fruition.
Sanderson was married to The Gun Club's Japanese bassist, Romi Mori, with whom he had a son, Syd.
After Earl Brutus's commercial failure, Sanderson got a job as an engine driver on the Brighton to London line.
