Scarlet BLONDE

scarlet/blonde The founder members, Dawn Firth and Ditch, met at age 4 and were always destined to work together. A class photo from back then has the words ?Dawn's boyfriend? inscribed by Dawns father beneath Ditch's picture- so the chemistry was clearly obvious from day one. In the intervening years, Dawn became a guitar virtuoso by learning every note from every Iron Maiden song alone in her room and picking up String and Guitar Endorsements on the way through her unbelievable, unique, self-taught technique.

Ditch travelled and studied, learning about music in all its forms from Dance to Electro to Classical to Metal to Arabic to Jazz. He learned how to record and be recorded and everything else he could pick up from wherever he could learn it. Then, in 2005, after a chance meeting at the party of a mutual friend, scarlet/blonde began.

For the next few years the duo worked on and forged a variety of musical styles, searching for their final direction, culminating in the release of ?Bedroom Superstars' in 2007. Later in 2007 they began working with Andy ?Grohl with Soul' Harvey, a drummer of sublime power and passion and through their edgier live sound the direction they needed to take became obvious.

The three piece have just finishing recording their new album, 'Acerbic...a loose concept', taking from their influences of Muse, Massive Attack, Duran Duran and 'Ray of Light' era Madonna. They will be releasing it and their new live show on the public in May 2009.
