FATBOY SLIM
Norman Cook can’t sing and he doesn’t write lyrics. Yet with more than 4 million albums scanned in the US alone and DJ gigs that outdraw most rock stars, Fatboy Slim has become an undeniable part of the musical backdrop.
Phrases like “Right about now, the funk soul brother”, “Right here, right now” and “I’ve got to praise you” have all become ingrained in our vernacular whilst Christopher Walken dancing and Spike Jonze spastically shimmying have become indelible images.
With 5 Grammy nominations (including one win) and unprecedented 9 MTV video awards, it is little wonder that Fatboy Slim’s audience crosses over into the rock, pop and dance world’s and extends from club kids right up to soccer moms.
