At the age of 16 Vicky Fallon O'Neill was signed by president and owner of Curb Records, Mike Curb as part of a three-part girl-band called Holy Smoke, along with Beverley Clarke and Jo Perry, who were both 20 years old. They signed a 7-album deal with Curb, and the group enlisted ex London Records MD Laurie Cokell as their manager, and after changing their name to Smoke 2 Seven when they found out another band already had the name Holy Smoke, they toured with Daniel Bedingfield, and released two UK singles. 'Been There Done That' was released in March 2002, and reached number 26 in the UK singles chart, followed exactly a year later by 'Envy', which only managed number 79. The girls recorded enough music for their debut album, and two versions were pressed up on promo CDr's, under the names of 'Crazy Tale' and 'Fighting Fire', but after Fallon left in 2002, the band drifted apart and the album was never released. After being released from her contract with Curb Records, O'Neill returned to London and began working as a session singer and songwriter under the name Vicky Fallon, working for Disney, Pixar, Alesha Dixon, Alsou and various other pop acts. Clarke and Perry faded from the music scene, but while together they were a tight little band, and as proof of that here is their unreleased 'Fighting Fire' album from 2003.
