Title: Hold Me / On Our Way
Format: 2-track 7" & CD
Single + iTunes Release
O2-F is
a collaboration between two Ks. Karla Milton, singer, and Kym Bradshaw,
songwriter. Together, they fire up a sound which owes a nod to Northern Soul
but blazes with an originality entirely its own.
This
band have a floating cast that includes, Kym Bradshaw (The Saints, The Lurkers
& The Small Hours), Karla Milton (DC Fontana & Karla Milton
Collective), Garry John Kane & Sara Kerr (Button Up), Armand Thompson
(Small Hours) & Toby Hounsham (Rialto).
Midlands-based
Karla, a professionally trained vocalist and musician, has recorded and toured
extensively with DC Fontana, fronting that band through a four-year firestorm of gigs which included
France, Spain and Italy. Along with home grown venues, this built an extensive
and enthusiastic fan base. Their subsequent successful album “Six Against
Eight”, produced by Donald Skinner, also featured the Liverpool Session
Orchestra. However, keen to extend and progress her music, Karla went on to
form and front a new band, the Karla Milton Collective. The O2-F project runs
alongside that.
Having
played guitar, written songs and sung since she was five years old, Karla, now
32, has been lauded as a natural successor to the legendary Julie Driscoll.
Definitely a singer with her wheels on fire, Karla also runs her own vocal
coaching business (KM Vocals) from her studio in central Birmingham.

Kym
Bradshaw was the original bass player and a founding member of seminal
Australian band The Saints, which enjoyed worldwide recording success and
toured the UK with The Ramones and The Jam. He later became a founder member of

With a number of commercially successful recordings to his credit, Kym,
now based near London, is involved in a range of musical projects. They include
writing for film / television soundtrack libraries, through to classical, to
Northern Soul... which is where the two Ks came together.
