As far as 2008’s British musical success stories go, Roy, Greg, and Pete’s undoubtedly reads the most telling. As the country wavered and tipped into economic collapse, it sparked a domino effect that left the music industry collectively reeling. Whilst many were left licking their wounds, it was the exuberance of this everyday, everyman’s Harrow trio that set untouchable standards, and injected a welcome dose of hope and happiness into a grey and dulling nation.
Scouting For Girls have bucked that trend for rapidly declining record and ticket sales, achieving double-platinum status for their number 1, eponymous debut album - and whilst some of the world’s biggest acts are forced to downsize venues due to disappointing lack of ticket sales, the phenomenal demand for Scouting For Girls has found the band touring endlessly, selling-out shows across the country and squeezing in extra dates to appease their fans' insatiable fervour (almost 200,000 were entertained in 2008 headline dates alone). With 3 Brit Award nominations (Best Breakthrough Act, Best Single: Heartbeat, Best Live Act) to cap a phenomenal 18 months, their unquestionable success is infectious.
Armed with a hugely impressive catalogue of hit singles (She’s So Lovely, Elvis Ain’t Dead, Heartbeat, It’s Not About You, I Wish I Was James Bond) that rivals any recent ‘greatest hits’ package, and as one of radio’s most familiar and successfully playlisted acts in years, Scouting For Girls have taken the tag of ‘Britain’s Biggest Breakthrough Band’ and soared far beyond it.
It is a touching success story of substance and inspiration, and one that’s roots started from the most healthiest and attainable of places; the minds of three ambitious life-long friends.

Hi there, I know It's kind of early but I wanted to make sure I get to everyone on my friends list because this is one of my favorite holidays of the year. I am a proud American and the 4th of July is a day to remember all those who have fought and are still fighting for our freedom. While we Sleep They Wake, While We enjoy our bbq's and swim in the pool.. They're defending our borders and eating sand. I salute all the men and women who make it possible everyday for my children and I to live a free life and if you are one of them ~~ From the bottom of my heart I THANK YOU!!! So Please take a moment on the 4th and remember what it really stands for... That Red White and Blue is not just a piece of cloth.. It is a SYMBOL of our freedom and the men and women who fight for it.
Happy Independence Day!!!! ~Kim
I'm Proud To Be An American Written By Lee Greenwood
If tomorrow all the things were gone I'd worked for all my life, And I had to start again with just my children and my wife, I'd thank my lucky stars to be living here today, 'Cause the flag still stands for freedom and they can't take that away.
I'm proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free, And I won't forget the men who died who gave that right to me, And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today, ' Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land God Bless the U.S.A.
From the lakes of Minnesota to the hills of Tennessee, Across the plains of Texas from sea to shining sea. From Detroit down to Houston and New York to L.A. , There's pride in every American heart and it's time we stand and say:
I'm proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free, And I won't forget the men who died who gave that right to me, And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today, ' Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land God Bless the U.S.A.
