::REVIEWS::

"Headliners Scarlet's Wake emerged from the back of the room to shock the crowd with an intense brand of metal that was not expected upon first viewing their reserved female vocalist.  Driven by their incredible drummer, they served up some classic dirty rock worthy of a crowd twenty times the size."
- Drew Heatley, Left Lion


"Scarlet's Wake are amazing.  You might at first be put off by their heavy vibes but the female melodic vocals balances it all out very nicely.  A must see!"
- NML, Notts Unsigned, Trent FM

"Headlining the event were Scarlet's Wake; a local Notts/Mansfield band.  It's no doubt that this band were incredibly talented, and musically very tight.  With the heaviest sound of all the bands tonight Scarlet's Wake certainly struck a chord with the Heavy Metal fans in the audience, including myself.  Lead vocalist Emma's powerful voice certainly made an impact on me and I undoubtedly enjoyed their lively, dedicated performance.  This band had a strong stage presence, bags of personality and catchy, thundering riffs.  Make sure you look out for them in your area!"
- Alice Durose, Wildchild Media, Moonshine Magazine


"With the centre of Nottingham being saturated with the same bands consistently and all too predictably, it's due time that a band from the outskirts came and shook the City up a bit.  Scarlet's Wake are not only a band to be reckoned with, but also one to be watched.  Hailing from Mansfield, Derby, Long Eaton and Nottingham and consisting of Emma (vocals), Stoney (lead guitarist), Amy (bass), and Adam Jones on the drums -Scarlet's Wake are a routine mix of Rock/Metal that come packed with a heavier than hell punch, of which will wake their audience up wherever they may go.  The contrasting beauty of Emma's powerful but haunting vocals added to a perfectly executed lead guitar from Stoney lays perfect musical foundations whilst an awe inspiring Amy on Bass and Adam on drums then bring together some amazing beats and riffs that make Scarlet's Wake a band exciting not only to hear but to watch also.  With a set that includes songs like Voodoo Dawn, Chalk Outline, Smile I've Got Knives and a cracking version of Barracuda, Scarlet's Wake can only go up from here...they're a brilliant band to not only hear live but see too.  Get yourself to a gig, you won't be sorry and if you're reading this whilst you're at The Intake for the gig tonight be ready to catch one of Nottinghamshire's most exciting new bands."
- Helen Martin, Mansfield Radio
(Who has since become our manager)!

"Described as a band that blend the best parts of metal, heavy-rock and alt-rock by BBC reporter Stephen Hudyba, we like to describe them as simply kick-ass."
- Exiled Radio

"Next up all the way from Nottingham, was Rock four-piece Scarlet's Wake.  They've got a Heavy-Rock sound which incorporates elements of Metal, Grunge and Punk for a strong, diverse direction that is powered along by Emma's strong, evocative vocal.  At times there is an almost experimental, progressive quality to their music, it's refreshing to see a band who will take a few risks with their sound, and in this case it really pays off adding a distinctive and genuinely exciting edge to their finely crafted core sound.  Live they have been consistently strong throughout this year's festival and they did not disappoint at The Barfly, delivering a performance that topped their two impressive previous efforts and showed why they more than deserved to get this far in the Festival." 
- Stephen Hudyba BBC WM


"The second band of the evening was Nottingham based four-piece Scarlet's Wake.  Musically they don't really fit into any genre 'boxes' and this is to their credit, the band having seemingly stripped the best parts from Metal, Heavy-Rock and Alt-Rock and crafted it into their own distinctive sound.  Once again it was the quality of their material that really made them stand out, well-written lyrics and a great sense of energy and pace, it was another excellent set from a band with a great sound and some real potential."
- Stephen Hudyba BBC WM


"Travelling all the way from Nottingham to play the Festival were four-piece alternative rock act Scarlet's Wake.  Their sound mixes elements of Hard-Rock, Alt-Rock and Metal for something that's instantly familiar yet with a tidy contemporary spin.  Excellent complex percussion from Adam powered them through their set at a furious pace, giving their sound a sharp distinctive edge, and strong guitar work and a powerful, finely pitched vocal performance from Emma completed the package nicely.  It was a tight measured performance on the night, and it saw them go down well with the Rainbow crowd."
- Stephen Hudyba BBC WM
