Sixpack of the Week

Mon 17th Nov 2008 (12:00) - Mon 24th Nov 2008 (00:00)

In this edition of SellaBand Sixpack we're bringing you Sherif Karama, Cloon, The Opposite of Faith, Katie Thompson, and Travellers. Unfortunately for MEO, who was on the competition for 2 weeks but unable to get to the number 1 spot can no longer be in the competition. So the five new bands are joined by last week's number 3, Skitzo Calypso. They can have another round to compete for the 'Artist of the Week' on SellaBand. So what are you waiting for? vote now!


1		Skitzo Calypso Rising from the ashes of creativity, drive, experience, success and resistance, Skitzo Calypso continues to evolve as the mid-Atlantic independent rock n’ roll band that refuses to give up or compromise its vision, for the sake of quick album sales, instant success, popularity or social acceptance. Despite their unique approach and exclusive sound, Skitzo Calypso has been received and accepted genre-wide, which is a true representation and victory of their intention.

2		Katie Thompson Katie Thompson is a refreshing young singer songwriter with a cool country slant and a keen ear for a straightforward and well written song (and she has one hell of a voice too!!). The 21 year old New Zealander is a member of the Dream Team, has recorded a number of collaborations and is steadily climbing the SellaBand chart. Katie is currently working on an album which will feature “This Is Goodbye” & “Monteiths on Tap” (both songs on her player). Help this Kiwi Fly!!!

3		Cloon Cloon started out in 2002 as an instrumental project containing current members Maarten, Philippe, and Servaas. A 4th Cloon member joins the ranks in February 2004. Tom Claus takes his place behind the microphone and appears to be the missing part of the puzzle, performing as an excellent story-teller and vocalist, but above all a genius with a master diploma in crazy freaked-out frontmanship. New songs were written and a new Cloon was born. Cloon is currently writing new material for a first full album, to be released somewhere in 2008.

4		Sherif Karama Sherif Karama is a solo artist from Montreal. Originally born in Cairo,Egypt, he's been composing music since the age of 12. Now aged 23 and playing all instruments in his small home studio, Sherif has found his sound in a folk-rock setting reminescent of Damien Rice and Glen Hansard, mixed with Silverchair and a touch of Coldplay. Watch out his most recent track Merry Jungle, a celebration of the victory over confusion!

5		Travellers Travellers, as they'd like to refer to, is not a band name but a philosophical concept. A delicate music construction work using and mixing samples. Sound Genres - Dance / Lounge / World Fusion / Ethnic / Chillout / Experimental / Nu-Jazz and others. All tracks producer by Rui Serra.

6		The Opposite of Faith With strains of Massive Attack, Gnarls Barkley, Morcheeba, NER*D and A Perfect Circle, sharpened with technical and creative edges, The Opposite of Faith gives the feeling of predatory pursuit as much as being deeply lost in thought, questioning everything with a desire to know more. The project is about constructing and deconstructing music and art-the goal to the band is to make something unique.
