The Scuffers

Looks like the album release date and associated launch night willl be Saturday 10th November. Make sure it’s penned in the diary with a black marker, you’re cordially invited of course. Venue TBC at this stage.

Good day to you all,

Currently in the planning stages for our debut album. We’ll be recording in August and will launch the album, with a stonking great-big launch party, probably in November. We’re going back to Carlton Studios to record with our main man Danny Mitchell, and we’re looking to push the boat out a bit more by adding in a few new instruments (with a little help from some friends).

Keep Honky Tonkin for now

Big Gav guested on Paul ‘Clarky’ Clarkson’s dedicated Americana Radio Show - The Switchback - on Sunny Govan FM. A couple of Scuffers tracks were played on the show and Gavin talked about the band and some of his influences, as well as indulging in a bit of patter with Americana’s answer to Tiger Tim. I shall post the show here as soon as it’s available.

Had a blast on our recent Highland ‘tour’. 2 great dates at The Arch Inn, Ullapool and Hootenanny’s, Inverness, supporting the magic AJ Roach. Thanks a million to Mr Rob Ellen for putting us on, and for having us on his radio show at Loch Broom FM. I’ll try to get hold of the recording and link to it somewhere soon.

Photos from our recent Oran Mor Gig supporting Kieran Docherty can be found in the gallery.

Yes it’s been a while since yours truly has managed to update the site. I know many of you check daily! Things are going swimmingly in the world of The Scuffers. Had a blast at our recent gigs, with some good gigs coming up. The band is sounding better than ever just now - check out our myspace to hear some exclusive live tracks from The Garage in March. There’s even some clapping! We were also played recently on Sunny Govan FM’s Switchback - Glasgow’s dedicated Americana radio show, on which ‘The Life I Had’ was played. Thanks indeed to The Hairy Cornflake from Crooked Rain for putting us on. We sincerely hope to catch you at a gig soon and, I promise, more website updates!
