Scars on 45 to Perform at WHBPAC, 2/6

The British indie rock quartet, Scars on 45, return to Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center as part of the "Breakout Artist Series" in partnership with WEHM with an intimate acoustic performance on Friday, February 6 at 8:00 p.m. All tickets are $25 and are available online at www.whbpac.org.

British alt-rock ensemble Scars on 45 make yearning, melodic pop that combines the big guitar rock of Oasis with the melodic, country-influenced sound of Fleetwood Mac. They earned critical acclaim as VH1's "You Oughta Know Artist," which landed them their U.S. television debut on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno.

Formed in Bradford, Yorkshire around 2007, Scars on 45 began as a duo after former football-mates, singer/songwriter Danny Bemrose and bassist Stuart Nichols, started writing songs together. Eventually the band expanded to include keyboardist David Nowakowski, vocalist Aimee Driver, and drummer Chris Durling. While the group developed a local following, it wasn't until their song "Beauty's Running Wild" was used in a 2009 episode of the CBS television drama CSI:New York that Scars on 45 caught the attention of the wider music industry. In 2011, buoyed by that success and a record deal with the Chop Shop label, Scars on 45 released two EPs, including Give Me Something and Heart on Fire, the latter's title cut appeared on the Grey's Anatomy, Vol. 4 soundtrack. A year later, the band released their self-titled debut album featuring the single "Heart on Fire." In 2014, Scars on 45 returned with their sophomore full-length album, Safety in Numbers, featuring the single, "Crazy for You." Don't miss Scars as they perform a special acoustic set on their celebrated return to WHBPAC!
