Biography
Little Game:

Giovanna is half Mexican and half Italian but grew up in California listening to the sound of the sea and her grandmother's jazz and blues records. She went to music college in San Diego where she funded her margherita habit by singing in coffee shops and working as a Marilyn Monroe impersonator. She and her band formed after a chance meeting in Starbucks. Their music is an infectious blend of blues, funk, ska and California soul.

Chris Impey plays guitar and omnichord. He grew up in Norwich, where he was voted Hellesdon Wanderers Under 12s Player of the Year.

Emma Martin had her first bass lesson from George Michael's guitarist and once dyed her hair to match her bass.

Kris Berent was the drummer in a thrash metal and a flamenco band before joining Little Game. He grew up in Poland and loves mountains, forests and roller-coasters.

Backing singers Ruth and Louisa often have to be told off for talking on stage. Ruth once met Minnie Driver in a toilet and Louisa moonlights as a television presenter.

Nathan, the band's trumpet player is the newest addition and is 6' 2"; 6' 6" including the ginger afro.
