Tenor for example in a sewer (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

singer

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'tenor for example' is the first definition.
(I know that tenor is a type of singer)

'a sewer' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for singer that I've seen before include "One performing song" , "Make of sewing machine" , "Crooner" , "E.g. bass" , "choirboy?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
