The Charlatans are an English rock band formed in the West Midlands in 1988 by Martin Blunt, and fronted since 1989 by Tim Burgess. With Mark Collins (from 1991) and Tony Rogers (from 1997), and earlier the late Rob Collins and Jon Brookes, the band has placed every studio album in the UK top 40, from 'Some Friendly' and 'Tellin' Stories' to 'Modern Nature' and 'We Are Love'.
