Forget everything you know. Forget the conventional, forget inviable gender roles, free yourself from old expectations, spit in the face of every mundane convention, and get on board a speeding train with four misfits on a fearless pursuit of being the next big thing to happen to music!
Sumo Cyco are everything you’ve heard and nothing you’ve heard before at once: chaotic guitar, anthemic sing-along choruses, and vocals from sweet and melodic to intense and fiery. Sumo Cyco are more than what you hear. Sumo Cyco pride themselves on creating memorable visual theatrical experiences for fans on the stage and beyond.
Lead vocalist Skye "Sever" Sweetnam rivals any front person on the stage. She's lived out a real-life school of rock. She spent her teenage years as a Capitol Records Pop artist, working with Disney, and as the singing voice of Mattel’s Barbie. Skye opened for Britney Spears’ Onyx Hotel Tour playing arenas by day, air drumming to Metallica and Rancid by night. In fact, Skye has written songs with Tim Armstrong among many A-list songwriters including Greg Kurstin and Max Martin.
In the wild west of the entertainment business, Sumo Cyco stands as a strong example of what true passion, hard work and a belief in one’s self can accomplish. Sure, they've won awards, and toured internationally with huge superstars, but what really matters is what they create when the world is still, with no one telling them what to do.
