One Eskimo are a London band fronted by Kristian Leontiou, with Craigie Dodds, Adam Falkner, Jamie Sefton and Martin Waugh completing the lineup. Their self-titled album, styled One eskimO, came out on Shangri-La Music in 2009, a hushed, dreamy indie rock record full of warm textures and gentle hooks.

"Kandi" is the song that stuck, a slow-blooming, sweet-toned thing that rock radio has kept coming back to, and "Amazing" shows the same soft touch.
