Eskimo Brit
Single: Paradise - February 5th 2007
Winner of the UK National Bands Unsigned online Battle of the Bands...
Eskimo Brit release glorious, powerpop anthem 'Paradise' on February 5th, a debut single that will showcase Eskimo Brit as a band to watch out for in 2007.
SammyJo says; 'It's about how different paradise is to each person; everyone has their own; a big house, fast car, spending time with someone special, all of those things or none of them. Maybe, like Chris, it's Cat Deeley in a bowlful of Jelly?'
Singing since she was 11, drumming since she was 15, SammyJo is something of an anomaly, her powerful lead vocals belting out from behind a set of drums, her radio mic clipped to a head of waist-length golden locks, flawless make-up and a curve-hugging little black dress - not your usual find behind the Toms.
With drumming heroes such as Phil Collins, Cosy Powell, and Sheila E (Who has been a source of advice and support.) SammyJo's drive knows no bounds.
Already drumming for Carol Decker and playing for music industry gatherings in Nashville, Washington, Copenhagen, and Norway to name a few, a chance meeting with Chris Pickard (Guitar) and friend Lee Dawson (Bass Guitar) at SXSW lead to the creation of Eskimo Brit. 'We just got on so well, so quickly and eat, sleep and breathe music.' says Lee.
With a full UK tour being lined up for early 2007, and exciting developments in the pipeline Eskimo Brit are set for big things.
