I’m a band member of One eskimO. We’ve toured the US relentlessly for 2 years and have just wrapped up a year of US shows including Coachella and the Mile High festival. Following a tidal wave of radio success, One eskimO’s single “Kandi” has been named the #1 AAA song of the year by Billboard’s BDS airplay charts, and also won “Song of the Year” at this years FMQB Triple A Conference. One eskimO has played on the Ellen DeGeneres Show three times, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and The Jimmy Kimmel Show.
Our iTunes bonus track “Hi Low And In Between” was named one of the “Best Songs Of 2010” by Amazon.com. We've toured with Tori Amos, Paolo Nutini, Gomez, Faithless, Train, The Script, Lifehouse, Alpha Rev, Colbie Caillat, Bob Schneider, Michael Franti & Spearhead, and Tricky, playing in venues such as Radio City in New York, the Chicago Theater and the Greek Theater in LA. We’re signed to Shangri La records in LA, and the animation side (which won a British Animation award) has been signed to Warner Premiere. We’re managed by ATC (Radiohead/Faithless/Kate Nash). I play an unconventional and ever-expanding set-up consisting of a cajon, bass drum, sampler (operated by hands and feet), cymbals, triggers, a melodica, a tambourine and various junk that I’ve accumulated. We’re currently recording our second album.
I have been a session musician for many years, with recent work including being musical director and drummer for Amy Macdonald for nearly four years (4 million albums sold, with many number 1 album and single positions Europe-wide).
I have also toured extensively, recorded, and performed with such artists as Mark Owen (Take That), Judie Tzuke, Steve Craddock, Michael Franti & Spearhead, Beverley Knight, Candi Staton, Gareth Gates, Devolution, Murray James, Louise and the Pins, Boy George (in the West End musical, Taboo), Ray Cooper, Nick Mason (Pink Floyd), Suggs (Madness), Alpha Rev, Paul Freeman, Girls Aloud, Rushmore, Bailey Tzuke, Kristian Leontiou, Sophie Ellis Bextor, Busted, Kelly Osbourne, JC Chasez, Avril Lavigne, G4, Gabrielle, Hilary Duff, Amy Studt, Toyah, Ana Jonsson, A1, Delta Goodrem, Robert Post and Peter Sarstedt.
