Who the hell are Scarlet Carson? Scarlet Carson is the meld of the old school grit of piss & vinegar rock n roll with the new school intensity of modern hard rock. Creating a rock n roll blend best explained as AC/DC, Guns N Roses, Aerosmith, Buckcherry, Papa Roach, & Motley Crue smashed together. Fermented. Aged. Poured in to a chilled glass. And served nestled comfortably between the bosoms of a Las Vegas stripper, on the rocks. Or as the band likes to call it..."Dirty Jersey Rock n Roll". Made up of NJ natives frontman Santino aka "Hollywood", Steven Stone on lead guitar, Corona on rhythm guitar and backup vox, Mayhem on bass, & Raab on the drums, this pack of musical deviants have already begun carving out a sizable niche in the NJ music scene.
Having formed in the Spring of 2008, Scarlet Carson has begun to compile a very impressive resume. In the Summer of 2008 the boys released their debut album "Not So Innocent" (CLICK HERE to download it from iTunes) to a packed house with fellow NJ act Skid Row. After only a year of tireless gigging and promotion, summer 2009 has been very rewarding for the dirty jersey rockers. Racking up a 2nd place (out of 160) win in the popular Break Contest at the legendary Stone Pony, performing at The Bamboozle Music Festival at the Meadowlands to a crowd of thousands, a hometown slot to the up and coming free Seaside Music Festival, a place on the Sam Ash stage at The Van's Warped Tour 15 in Oceanport, NJ. And a first place victory in the 95.9 WRAT band search, granting them regular radio rotation and the chance to open Cruefest 2 at The PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel, NJ with none other than Motley Crue and a slew of other big name rock bands. But it doesn't end there, the momentum continues as Scarlet Carson played support for hard rock quartet Drowning Pool at the Starland Ballroom in Sayreville, NJ on September 10th. Topping it all off with the highly praised release of their latest single "The Drinkin' Song", the first of many planned single digital track releases to come, Scarlet Carson plans on pumping out more sleazy rock rock tracks for your debauchery pleasure.
Its catchy, its heavy, its light, and its sexy! You can sing to it, dance to it and fight to it! It’s everything you want in your rock music, with the occasional drunken stripper! It's "Dirty Jersey Rock n Roll"! Its Scarlet eFin' Carson!
