Layout Created at Mspremade.comFormed: Moscow, Russia … February 2005, by singer/guitarist Alexey Korolev and bassist Tair Ismailov, who were already the owners of rather chequered music biz CVs. With the addition of Ramil Mubinov, on drums, and Ivan Protasov, on guitar/organ, the band’s line-up was complete, adopting the name Scarlet Dazzle at Tair’s suggestion. Although starting out as a psychedelic outfit, the band have gradually moved away from their early Pink Floyd-oriented sound into the ocean of classic rock. Alexey and Ivan coming from a blues background while Tair and Ramil from the psychedelic angle, Scarlet Dazzle have an acute grasp of melody, drive and dynamics.
2008 saw them working on their first album, self-titled, which was released in October of the same year, and proved a big hit with critics and fans alike. Ranging from the sheer lyricism of “One Step From The Sea†to the psychedelia of “Pigeon Carpenter†and the bluesy growl of “I Can’t Keep From Crying Sometimes,†it reflects a weird mixture of their backgrounds and influences.
