A Band Neither Big or Scary.


Big Scary is a band with a lot of potential. I first heard their songs at the start of last year but never investigated further. However i was pleasantly surprised after seeing them support the Hungry Kids of Hungary gig.

The band consists of only two people (much alike the Flight of the Conchords but cooler). Tom (he) and Jo (she). Tom the lead singer, plays guitar and piano while Jo plays drums. Their music ranges from the upbeat indie rock "Apple Song" which will get you singing the chorus over and over, to the poppy "Falling Away".

I find that Tom's vocals are reminiscent of Buckley's. Although not as refined in range, his tone is very similar especially in songs such as Hey Somebody. I highly recommend you get to a Big Scary gig, you wont be disappointed.
