Blackfoot Sue was a British glam rock band, formed in 1970 by the twin brothers Tom and David Farmer, and Eddie Golga.
A British glam / hard rock band, formed in 1966 in Birmingham, UK by the twin brothers Tom and David Farmer, with Eddie Golga. Originally named 'The Gift' they relocated to London in the early 1970's and changed the name to 'Blackfoot Sioux' and then to Blackfoot Sue. A single released in August 1972, "Standing in the Road", reached number 4 on the UK Singles Chart. Lack of further tangible success left them labelled as one-hit wonders. However, they did have another record enter the UK Singles Chart. "Sing Don't Speak" reached number 36 in December 1972. According to Allmusic, "they were written off as a teen sensation and broke up in 1977". The group split after their second album in 1977, but the Farmer brothers quickly went on to form another band called Liner, and were charting again by early-1979.
