Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Harringay's gifts to pop

I am bored, so see if you can entertain me.
Did any pop stars, big or small, come from Harringay, or indeed any rubbish punk and indie bands?
Some or all of Travis (remember them?) used to live on the ladder, but beyond that my mind is blank...
Johnny Rotten comes from Finsbury Park but we can't claim him.
Nor can we have Adrian 'Classic' Gurvitz - he is Stoke Newington's.

Dave Vanian of The Damned used to live on Park Road. I heard a rumour that Captain Sensible was (or still is?) a local. Chipmunk was at St Aidan's school until a few years ago. The Kinks, of course (Muswell Hill, and Konk studios on Tottenham Lane). I know there are more B-)
