It was the beginning of 2006, and a gaggle of dormant musicians were very bored indeed. Not content with just working 3-4 day weeks, studying disciplines that have no practical use and partying like there was no tomorrow, they decided to destroy all the free time and personal relationships they had…
Thus The Scaredy Cats were born, who play homage to original Jamaican ska, British 2-tone, and American 3rd wave as well as taking lessons from a variety of punk and rock bands. The result is a distinct (honest!) hard rocking ska with a no-nonsense 3 piece brass section and dual vocal styles – the gruff, boozed up cries of Mr. Happy mixed with the gentle melodies of Daisy. The lyrics address such contentious issues as break-ups, wanting to take a holiday, music festivals being shit, bad dreams and absent friends.
Since the current line-up has been completed, South East London has partied like never before at packed out shows in dingy pubs and clubs where the beer and nitrous oxide flows ‘freely’ (£3 a pint and £1 a hit respectively).
TO BOOK US get in touch over myspace but please be patient, there is up to 9 of us and its really hard organising all our schedules. thanks!
