"Possibly the next big rock band to come out of Dirty Jersey!" says the tri-state's one and only Aquarian Weekly. "When they step on stage, a party has no doubt begun!" exclaims Pop-Break's Lisa Pikaard. With charismatic frontman Santino Noir heading up lead guitarist Stone, rhythm axe Tommy, bassist Mayhe\m/, and Raab behind the skins, Scarlet Carson has stacked up one impressive resume! Winners of the 2011 Jagermeister Music Invitational, the 2010 Break Contest [of 6000 Applicants], the 2009 95.9 RATFest Band Search Contest, & the 2009 War for the Warped Tour. While ranking on the Top 10 SIGNED Charts of ClearChannels iHeartRadio's nationally syndicated "NEW! Rock" program and maintaining the rank for months with their single "West Coast Dreamer", as well as holding the top "Recommended Artist" slot for 4 months. The boys have also climbed to #1 on Road Runner Records SignMeTo.com Daily Rock Chart and Peaked at #4 on the All Time Rock Charts. Topping it all off with numerous award nominations, including "Top Rock Band" in the 2010 Asbury Park Music Awards, making Scarlet Carson no stranger to accolades.
Playing their signature style of metal & blues infused hard rock since 2007, this power packed 5-piece has shared the stage with numerous acts such as Papa Roach, Buckcherry, Motley Crue, Vince Neil (of Motley Crue), Fuel, Skid Row, Hellyeah, Bullet for my Valentine, Saliva, Drowning Pool, Rev Theory, Cavo, Saving Abel, The Damned Things, All That Remains, Red, Burn Halo, Pop Evil, Adelitas Way, Art of Dying, Redlight King, and more! Scarlet Carson has also made some noise at numerous music festivals such as The Bamboozle Festival (3 years in a row, including a mainstage appearance), The Warped Tour, & Cruefest 2, all while tucking three full length albums under their belt, having released the latest album to a captive hometown crowd of 1,100 headlining The Starland Ballroom. Dirty Jersey’s most promising rock n’ roll sons are currently on the road supporting their most recent album "Foreverless" and promoting the Scott Hansen helmed video of the same title, all while working on new material and prepping to return to the studio this Fall.
“Scarlet Carson takes over a room the minute they walk through the door. Lead singer Santino Noir has the power to hypnotize a venue as the band draws in the audience with a spellbinding power.”
Lisa Pikaard - Pop-Break.com
“Scarlet Carson embraces the schmaltz and pomp of their Les Paul wielding heroes, blending the shtick and flash with genuinely bone-crunching music... [They] step away from the local yokel circuit and into a focused, attention grabbing arena of rock and roll brilliance.”
John Pfieffer - The Aquarian Weekly
“Scarlet Carson is one of New Jersey’s finest. Great live showmanship, playing and songs...”
Gotham Rocks
"Possibly the next big rock band to come out of Dirty Jersey."
Tim Louie - The Aquarian Weekly
“Ladies and Gentlemen….rock and roll is back!”
JerseyRockReview.com
“...For an unsigned band, these guys seemed larger than life when they hit that stage...if any major label passes up on these guys, there’s definitely something wrong with this industry!”
Tim Louie - The Aquarian Weekly
“Scarlet Carson is no shrinking violet.”
Marissa Kameno - Asbury Park Press [Online]
“In the immortal words of The Marvelous 3, Scarlet Carson has indeed "...brought back the rock."”
Jay Amabile - SexyArmpit.com
"This five-member group joins a genre of rock known for its tight jeans and revved-up solos... You have to be in a very particular mood for this kind of music: an overtly masculine and noisy mood, but a mood making for a “snooze-free” live show."
Tommy Werner - VIBES - The Music Blog
“Stemming straight out of the Jersey Shore's music halls, Scarlet Carson has shot out of the ground like a blood red rose spiked with just enough jagged thorns.”
Alexandra Johnson - Night & Day Magazine
"I love the energy up there you guys, you definitely go up there and put everything you have in to it..."
- Dale Mahabir [Killbrand Clothing]
“Scarlet Carson has a very strong presence on the stage... The lead singer has a great voice.”
Kerrianne - Bukisa.com
"I love the rock! You guys have the energy, you've got the look, you've got the partying! You guys have a big party on stage, and I believe!"
John D (Live Nation / Linc Star / Bamboozle)
“From the Skate & Surf stage -- one of the two big ones at the Bamboozle's Meadowlands parking lot site -- rambunctious Scarlet Carson attempts to interest the crowd in a chant of "sex and drugs and rock 'n' roll -- and don't forget the alcohol."”
Tris McCall - NJ.com
“I think it's great that you guys are fans of your own music. You play what you like and not just what the people want to hear.”
