Fatboy Slim otherwise known as Norman Cook was born Quentin ‘Norman’ Cook in Bromley, England 13 July 1963, but grew up in Redhill, England. He moved to Brighton to attend college where he started DJing around town. When he got a call from old school mate Paul Heaton he moved to Hull to play bass in Heaton’s band, the Housemartins.
For a man who has been in the music buisness for 15 years you can look for him not to quit or slow down. And so Norman Cook and his ‘House Of Love’ have helped put Big Beat on the musical map and turn him into an international superstar. He was engaged to Zoe Ball of BBC Radio 1 fame on Valentine’s Day ’99 and married to her on 8.22.99. He recieved an award for Best Dance Act 1999 from the Brits and recently recieved four MTV Video Award nominations for his video ‘Praise You’. All this from a guy that said..
