About us...

Scrimshire is a few things. It's my surname, it is the name that I record my solo songs under and it is the name that represents a band of people who have joined with me to play these songs that I have been writing (in collaboration with some of these individuals) over the last 16 months or so.

Scrimshire is now also the name I use as a DJ. Which has become a beautiful outlet for getting about, meeting incredible people and playing the music I care about and that influences me and the band sound. Sounds like jazz, soul (even the 80s stuff), funk, folk, latin and african beats.

So anyway, meet the band.

About

"Scrimshire’s sound is steeped in jazz, soul and funk, but with a nod to contemporary sounds, and with strong popular song writing sensibilities. This man knows how to write a tune!!"
