Seeker are an exciting young Soul-Pop band, based in Brighton, UK and are fronted by Jen Jarvis, who’s soulful vocals have been likened to the Sugababes, India Arie and Sia Furler.
Seeker play a unique blend of Soul and Pop with a good measure of attitude. The band started back in 2002 and have developed their unique sound as they have experimented with new sounds and technology, successfully merging well written pop songs with solid grooves and ear catching instrumentation. They’ve had a huge amount of positive feedback from fans, fellow musicians, venues and promoters, saying that they love the sound, and that there’s nothing quite like it out there at the moment, not least because of the 9 piece line up, including brass, rhodes and excellent backing vocals.
The band are currently working on their next album, which is due for release in 2009, but watch out for single releases on iTunes in the meantime! The band are getting more and more opportunities from various people in the industry including requests for songs to be included on compilation albums, interest from independent film makers and remix offers from London and Brighton based DJs.The band have played a wide variety of venues around the UK, including the Komedia (Brighton), the Halo Bar, London (event run by Michelle Escofrey and previously graced by Corinne Bailey Rae and Nate James), the Orange Rooms, Southampton (previously played by Alice Russell, Morcheeba & Giles Peterson). If the band keep going at this rate, they have the potential to be a huge success not only in the UK, but worldwide.
Some reviews...
Turnin on the Lights -’’This is a beautiful song. I am a hip hop artist and this is my new favorite song. Well composed, well written, well recorded, and extremely inventive. Better than whats currently on the radio in that genre.’’
’’This band exudes class. Play them anywhere and anytime to capture the hazy, good feelings of sunny days.’’ (Tilting Sky Magazine)
