Drummer of “Joe Gideon and The Shark” goes simply by “The Shark” and she totally is. This London based duo is currently touring and hopefully Tom Tom Magazine will catch up with her. New favorite band. Check it out …
From their myspace:
“Gideon plucks six strings, dreams stories and sings. Kid sister Viva, a.k.a. ‘The Shark’, plonks, stomps and honks. Formerly members of Bikini Atoll, they released two albums on Bella Union, second album recorded by geeky genius Steve Albini. Then, they formed a family band and spent summer 06′ getting drunk in a barn writing songs on their 8 track recorder. It’s been two years now and in this time they’ve been invited to play with great bands and musicians around europe; Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Archie Bronson Outfit, The Duke Spirit, Scout Niblett, Michael Gira to name but a few. Their tales are beginning and their tails are wagging….”
