One EskimO is a four piece indie rock group from London, England and frontman Kristian Leontiou describes its sound as “magical, ambient, filmic, acoustic, beautiful and meaningful.” Leontiou was a popular UK solo artist in 2004, but broke away from the pop scene in order to “write about how I felt about life, love, losses and failures, highs and lows, even heartbreaks. But also about how amazing human life is and how mind-blowing our very existence is.”

  • One eskimO supported Tori Amos on her 2009 Sinful Attraction Tour and subsequently released the 4-track “One eskimO EP”. They performed on the Ellen DeGeneres Show in the US in March of 2010.
