[3] The 2000 line-up officially consisted of Renée Brennan (vocals), Dean Lawton (drums), Chris Yong (guitar), Paul Matthews (bass), and Kevin May AKA DJ Kritikl (turntablism).
After a few months of speculation, his place was taken by Hamilton bass player Shannon Brown, previously from the band Mama Said.
For months after Tadpole played sporadically with temporary guitar/bass parts, before settling on two new members, Henry Penny, and Ollie Gordon.
In June 2006, the band announced it was breaking up after a final Auckland concert and the release of their self-titled album Tadpole.
Joining Dilemma and Chris Yong is Dino Lawton on drums, Shannon Brown on bass, and DJ Kritikl on the turntables.
