IT'S been a tiring year for ESKIMO JOE since it released its debut five-track CD SWEATER four months back.
The winners of the 1997 NATIONAL CAMPUS BAND COMPETITION, performing at the Cambridge Hotel tomorrow night, has just returned from a 10-week national tour with SPRUNG MONKEY. As if that wouldn't have been enough to raise the blood pressure a little, the Perth band promptly embarked on a quick jaunt to their hometown before jetting back to perform on the SURF SKATE SLAM gigs this month.
It would seem that there is to be no rest for the chronically talented however.
Now the band has set itself a punishing summer schedule including the WARPED, MUDSLINGER, GLENWORTH VALLEY, THE FALLS and BIG DAY OUT festivals.
There are few complaints from the group, mind you, because the band is enjoying TRIPLE J airplay for the quirky, low-fi pop of SWEATER, and healthy exposure to new audiences everywhere.
