Big Bam Boo

Big Bam Boo was a British/Canadian pop duo formed in 1987 by Simon Tedd (later known as Simon Scardanelli) and Shark. They gained attention for their energetic performances, often armed with acoustic guitars and a beat box. Their debut album, *Fun, Faith & Fairplay*, was released in 1989 on MCA/Uni, featuring singles like "Fell Off a Mountain" and "Shooting From My Heart," which reached #61 on the UK Singles Chart and achieved significant success in Canada and the US Mainstream Rock charts. The duo appeared on UK and European TV throughout 1989, receiving critical acclaim from the music press. Despite their early success, the band faced challenges with their record label, leading to an unreleased second album.

In recent years, Big Bam Boo has released new material, including "Homesick" and "The New York Tapes," though specific details about these releases are not well-documented in available sources. The duo's legacy continues to be celebrated for their unique blend of pop and energetic live performances.
