Thomas Timothy Vernon-Kell (born 10 May 1981, London) is a self-taught multi-instrumentalist musician.

He signed to the small label Tummy Touch in 2001, having spent the previous eight years writing and recording in his parents' garage.

Vek's debut album We Have Sound was recorded whilst he completed a graphic design degree. The album, which has been described^[who?] as ghrawph, driven by subtle electronic touche and a back borne of funk, was finished in mid-2004 but was not released until 2005 when Island Records licensed it through Go! Beat Records. The record was subsequently licensed through Universal Records to Startime International for a North American release.

Vek made a guest appearance on the television programme, The OC, where he performed a gig at 'The Bait Shop' venue; the third season episode 'The Road Warrior' featured his track "I Ain't Saying My Goodbyes". He also contributed to the Grand Theft Auto IV soundtrack, with "One Horse Race" which was the B-side to his single, "Nothing but Green Lights".

Vek is working on the follow up to We Have Sound which will be released by Island Records.
