SHARKO
Indie rock-pop from Belgium with great songs.
Stadium chants (“Excellent”, “Spotlite”), phony storytelling (“Rip off a phone call”), epic hit-single (“I went down”), one clean uppercut (“Motels”), witty funny titles (“Bootleg of AC/DC”), moody retro stuff (“Love is a bug”), cartoonish tunes (“Clash P”), intense songwriting (“President”), power emo rock (“Sweet protection”), tear-jerking melodies (“I need someone”) and many more.

“Meeuws2 isn’t the life and soul of the party, but the guy sitting in the corner with a wry smile and a nice line in dry put-downs. Amiable Belgian’s UK debut.” 7/10 NME April 2003

David Bartholomé: vocals, bass, guitars, keyboards?Teuk Henri: guitars?Julien Paschal: drums??1999: “FEUDED” - the first album is released in Belgium. ?A “one-man-band” then, Bartholomé plays almost all instruments and gets help from engineer Rudy Coclet to produce most of his songs. “Such a bone” which is included, gets noticed much due to its weird sexy lyrics.?The album is also released in Netherlands and France to positive reviews all over.??2000: Single “Wake up” released in January. With the help of guitar player Teuk Henri, Sharko tours as much as they possibly can. Supporting Paul Weller and Muse in France, Netherlands and Belgium, the two men develop a growing live reputation based on bizarre humorous performances by Bartholomé shrouded with wild guitar sounds by Teuk.??2001: “MEEUWS2” - the second album released in march in Belgium, France and Netherlands. Produced by U.S. producer Mike Mogis (Bright Eyes - whose reputation grows in the U.S.), “MEEUWS2” gets wild reviews.
