The Scarlet Fever

About Me

In late 2003 singer/songwriter Jay Draper was introduced to guitarist Rob Peets and the two instantly hit it off. Soon after, keyboardist Tyler Steel joined them and together they began to construct their unique sound. The Scarlet Fever was formed. The band aims to combine glam and dark rock influences, along with a vibrant stage show to create music that mixes genres in a fresh and innovative fashion.

In March 2006, The Scarlet Fever released their first official EP, "This is Tomorrow", currently available for purchase online at cdbaby.com and now also available as a digital download from iTunes ! If you live in the Toronto area, the CD can also be found at Criminal Records
