After a long summer of ripping up the festival circuit with their live 10 piece show, Scubaroots have headed into deepest, darkest Shepherds Bush to record their much anticipated new album 'Babylon Pharmacy' (Out Summer 2009). Currently working on their new record with Morgan Nicholls (former bass player of The Streets, Gorillaz, Lily Allen, The Senseless Things) they are looking forward to returning to the stage for more festival action in the UK and abroad.
"One of Bristol's hottest club secrets, and championed by the likes of Mr. Scruff, The Scratch Perverts and DJ Derek, are the prodigious party boys and girls, Scubaroots."
"At its core are Richard De Rosa and Richard Cox who write and produce the tracks. Live the group consists of a ten piece band that on occasion swells to include gospel choirs, record geek DJs, Latin percussion outfits and a ton of other party-kinds up for a party. Expect high energy, disciplined and soulful music that nods to the best kinds breakbeat, funk, reggae and roots influences you can imagine. The band forged on the South West college circuit and now has an ardent following in Bristol, and wherever they have gigged around the country. Taste beyond their years this is killer stuff. Crowds forming. Let the word spread."
