I was so excited to be chosen to review the One eskimO album "All Balloons!"
One eskimO is a critically-acclaimed English band fronted by singer-songwriter Kristian Leontiou and includes musicians Pete Rinaldi (guitar), Jamie Sefton (bass, horns) and Adam Falkner (drums).
They currently have the #1 adult alternative song called 'Kandi' which you may have already heard since it's the most played song on all adult rock radio 4 weeks and counting! Billboard Magazine calls One eskimO's self-titled debut album "...catchy, ambient pop." and Los Angeles Times Magazine hails the song "Kandi" “a beautiful, aspirational track.” The album is available in stores now. Watch the amazing Kandi video now!
The album release comes in tandem with a full length animated film. “Hometime”, one of the tracks that an animated short was first done with proved to be quite a sensation. It received numerous honors at film festivals around the world, as well as a 2008 British Animation Award.
I LOVE quite a few songs on this CD. Astronauts, WHICH YOU CAN DOWNLOAD FOR FREE HERE, is amazing. It is bathtime music for me. It just takes you away. Kandi is the funnest, funkiest, jazziest, sassiest song I can think of at the moment. And I can truely say there are NO SONGS on this CD I don't enjoy!!
The listing of tracks on this CD are:
- Hometime
- Astronauts
- Kandi
- Slip
- Simple Day
- Givin Up
- Chocolate
- All Balloons
- Chosen One
- UFO
- Amazing
