About

Skip Curtis is an artist, songwriter and record producer from South Wales, UK. 

In 2015 Skip to established the ‘fake’ band XY&O to demonstrate some of his song-writing.  Soon after, radio stations in the USA began playing XY&O’s demos and the ‘fake’ band became a real one.

Debut single ‘Low Tide’ went straight into Spotify’s Viral Top 10 and XY&O found themselves in the unusual position of having a viral hit on their hands having only played one gig.

In 2019 Skip began releasing solo material whilst writing and producing for other artists as well as establishing the record label Pet Shop Records. 

Skip’s debut solo album ‘Culture Violet’ is planned for release in early 2021.
