Quotes
'Scaramoose put on an excellent show' - Jeremy Glover (CEO Music Indie Awards)
'Slightly laid-back funky bluesy rocky song from an interesting band with a fresh sound. The playing is tight but retains a relaxed feeling, giving the impression that these guys are very happy in each others' company. Great vocal, an impressive mix, accomplished playing and quite infectious... Lovely.' - MacLaren
