Si Crantoun’s story….
Way back in the 70's, when aged 4, as a dancing lounge act. In his socks and underpants he wore out the carpet with regular performances for his parents, grandparents & pet doberman dog.
He was soon spotted by his younger brother Tyber and it wasn't long before the pair of them put on nightly home shows and drove their mother Jackie up the wall!
In the late 90's Si founded a busking vocal duo, The Dualers, with his brother. Having put their toy sharing differences behind them, the pair embarked on an incredible journey together, harmonising a mix up of classic soul, ska and rock ‘n’ roll.
With a strong cult following on the street Si went on to write, produce, record and release, their debut single Kiss On The Lips. The hit song reached 21 in the UK national charts in 2004.
The duo continued to pound the pavements in the years that followed selling out London’s O2 Indigo with Si’s songwriting and vocals remaining a key ingredient on the albums they recorded, up until 2011.
In 2012 Si returned back to a solo career, having become a prolific bandleader and songwriter on the vintage scene with dance-floor hits Dynamo, Coupe De Ville, Vegas Baby & Old School. All still remain favourites on the old wooden floors.
In 2013 Si was signed to Warner Records and championed by DJs Chris Evans and the late Terry Wogan. He was A listed on Radio 2 and Magic with the self penned hits Dance Forever More and Caught In the Moonlight.
In 2015 Si wrote, produced and released A Christmas Twist which went viral on the net, notching up over 12 million views.
In 2017 Si was signed to German label Ruf Records and toured Europe with the Blues Caravan. He released the album Old School featuring more self penned scene hits, including Vegas Baby and Old School.
In 2018 Si was back in the spotlight reaching millions when an old 2010 dance clip of him street performing with his brother went viral. The clip, shot by a passer by, captured Si’s jovial home recorded version of a 1962 Jamaican Ska tune Don’t Stay Out Late. Si added a penny whistle, sped the tune up to a jig and created a dandy street dance.. dandy!
In 2020 whilst in lockdown, Si wrote and recorded an intimate unplugged album on his acoustic guitar Poems Unlocked. Featuring Daisy Duke, Hunker Down, Closeness & Shining Lights, which was officially released on iTunes and via his online shop early in 2021.
In Sep 2024 Si released a new 5 Track EP Lone Blue Star from the soon to be released new album Jollification.
