Biography

 


 


 


In 2006 drummer Matt Bell joined as the third band member to complete the current line-up of London based Sam Kills Two. Prior to that, Swedish singer songwriter Fred Bjorkvall had, through a chance meeting at Fortress Studios, joined up with guitarist Geoff Gamlen and begun shaping the powerful yet devastatingly fragile sound that signifies the band.



Shortly after forming, the band played a few small gigs in and around London with great response from audiences and peers on the acoustic circuit. Following that, at the end of the summer they were invited to play the main stage at the Bloom Festival in Wiltshire.



At the start of 2007 they temporarily stopped gigging in order to focus on the recording of their debut album. They joined forces with midlands based producer Nigel Clark, bass player and song-writing frontman of 90‘s Britpop band Dodgy, who immediately proved to be the right man to produce the sound they were after. With Nigel, the perfect tone was created for Fred’s hymnal vocals to a backdrop of cleverly used, delicate acoustic and electric instrumentation.



Along with a previously recorded instrumental track(Flatland) they put the first 2 songs recorded with Nigel onto an EP and released it on digital download in April 2007 with the track listing , Electric Shock, Polar Winter and Flatland.


 


In March 2008 their debut album was fully recorded and mixed. The 11 tracks were shortly after sent out in various directions of the music industry and they also rekindled communication with indie label Rocket Girl. As a result, at the end of April they signed to Rocket Girl and the album is due for release on the label in autumn 08.
