Scully
Scuzzy guitars, California sunshine, Brooklyn grime, four
friends…That's Scully.
The members of Scully first met in a parking lot behind an
Ethiopian restaurant after a SXSW show in 2009, but their friendship was truly
solidified a few months later when their bands, The Splinters and The
Numerators, played a sweaty, weird warehouse show together in Bushwick. A few
years later, after playing in various other projects, Caroline Partamian
(guitar/vocals), Courtney Gray (guitar/vocals), Lauren Stern (bass/vocals)
reunited in Brooklyn to play together for the first time since 2011, and they
invited their best bud and QT, Burgers Rana, to round out the group on drums.
“Scully is Grungy garage Psych rock coming at ya with dream
pop vocal cuts to the pleasure center.” Have a listen to “Wave”, the first
single from their upcoming EP release “No Sense”. Then go check out their
social links to stay up to date on what they are up to.
