Graffiti 6

The unlikely pairing of producer TommyD and singer/songwriter Jamie Scott began 18 months ago as an experiment neither thought would work and has grown in a pop project so refreshingly rule-free a sense of adventure seeps from every song.

Try to categorise Graffiti6 and you're in trouble. You'll certainly spot vintage soul influences, the pair's shared love of Hendrix, folk and funk. You'll hear house and hip hop beats destined to fill dancefloors. At the heart of the songs are pop melodies you could sit down with a guitar and strum. But Graffiti6 don't make music to be analysed. From the moment they named their band by flicking through pages of their favourite books and calling out the first words their eyes fell on - Lionel Stingray and Suitcase Unannounced were close contenders - the pair's main aim has been to have fun.

"Everything about this band is a happy accident," says Tommy. "Even now, we're trying to plan as little as we can. It has to stay fresh "To me, Graffiti6 is party music. We make songs for people to play when they're dolling themselves up for a night out, to get down on dancefloors to and to rave around their front room to when they roll back drunk. It's music we genuinely believe will make people feel good about themselves. That has to start from us having fun. When we're not, we'll stop."

With BBC Radio 1's Fearne Cotton spinning 'Annie You Save Me' on her show recently, saying "It's really gorgeous. A really chilled song... I don't think anything else really sounds like that out there" 2010 is looking bright for Graffitit6.
