About Me

Formed mid 2005, two members of Scruffy joined forces with Jamie and Elliot and started Cool Tapes. Regular practise sessions and home recordings ensured that it wasn't long before we'd nailed our "Cool Tapes" style. Cool Tapes badges are the must have fashion accessary for 2006, already shifted nearly 100. They're available from band members, for free if we like the look of you.We're trying to gig as much as possible around the U.K. Anyone who wants to book us or let us support them at a gig, let us know!We're up for anything, so long as its semi-legal! Our style is indie/new-wave.
