Re:Hamfatter (should be Phatter) - the Dragon's Den band - 2008/07/23 14:54
My old boss, Debbie M, didn't seem totally impressed by the band, but the little I've heard of them sounds slightly above average. They came across as very natural and likeable in an interview I saw on some TV channel. If the follow on publicity is not too delayed I think they could do quite well initially. Then it will be up to the quality of the music and their connection with music fans.
I agree with Mart about reputation, although it is possible to have both reputation and hits. Apart from his final single, released after he died, Johnny Cash hadn't had a "hit" in the UK since 1976, but his reputation was obvious among all generations. Same with Travelling Wilburys - a success band because of who they each were.
That said, I think some artists are still pleased to be one hit wonders, as opposed to no hit flops.
I wish Hamfatter success.
