New Artist

Child Scaramouche

Two nice promo movies for very sensible songs, however no info on thriller art-rock artist….is it a band, is it one-man. Is he a Brit, or from The USA?  Who’s Child Scaramouche? Asks Ged Babey… 

For those who’ve been on the lookout for an all-purpose art-punk anthemic rant in opposition to traitors, ‘stoolies’, rats, turncoats, quislings and judases … then look no additional.  That is improbable.  A one-listen and also you’re-hooked cracker.

So crammed stuffed with nice influences from Beasties to Blur, an immediacy, wit and stylishness lacking from a lot new music.

So I assume that you just wanna know all about Child Scaramouche?  Properly, I’m not gonna let you know nothing.

Music Writing is a mere promotional device within the music enterprise – a subsidiary of promoting. Press Releases come now within the format of a ready-written assessment to repeat and paste and current to the reader – lots of buzzwords, info, stats and tenuous hyperlinks to well-liked successes.  A shiny press-pack stuffed with it.  (in each senses)

So it makes a refreshing change when an artist does the other  – nothing.

Once we know subsequent to nothing. When there’s a little bit of thriller and an enigmatic air.

Child Scaramouche is an artist who does issues in another way.  No agent, not even an internet site or Fb web page. Simply the product. Sitting there pro-actively doing fuck-all, ready to be found and hailed as a genius.

He’s hardly a hidden man of thriller as a result of his face is everywhere in the movies – staring down the digicam lens proper into your very soul. However aside from that….

Video Proof No.2   Pink Coat.  A pointy and angular, up to date Nic Roegs ‘Don’t Look Now’ maybe.  Jogs my memory of a great deal of obscure 90’s bands when the post-punk ‘revival’ hit – however on the similar time a traditional, timeless left-field pop hit from a barely surreal parallel universe.

You’ll have to search out extra from and information about Child Scaramouche your self and the one clues are on the platforms beneath.  9 years again he was ‘ Impressed by Anthony Newley, Ivor Cutler and Piper on the Gates of Daybreak’ and there was a earlier band within the early Nineties.

Child Scaramouche might be a genus and he makes nice cult viewing and listening.

Let’s strive and ensure he isn’t tainted by fame and riches and celeb. He’s far too good for that.
