Purveyor of odd pop and twisted ballads, Scott Lavene is a born storyteller. Through his records, and his writing Scott Lavene has long been populating a hallucinogenic world of his own creation with ne’er do wells, ragamuffins and eccentrics. From a man draining the blood of property agents in the aid of local businesses, to a talking horse who travels Europe selling hash, gambling and performing covers of Talking Heads, his latest album "Disneyland In Dagenham" is no exception. It’s a record that tumbles together the autobiographical and the imagined, the heart-breaking and the preposterous.
With songs including "Waitrose Has Run Out of Lobsters", "Sadly I'm Not Steve McQueen" and "Custard" you may just be about to discover your new favourite artist!
