Artist description
Inside Scarlet is one of Las Vegas' most popular rock acts. The band's fiery blend of melodic hooks and alt.guitar dynamics along with the vocal chops and charisma from the band's two female recently shot them to the top of the playlist at Vegas' Xtreme Radio (with their song "September") and snared them a mention in the July ‘99 issue of Rolling Stone. Their live show has made them a favorite at such showrooms as Hard Rock Hotel's Joint, MGM Grand, and Mandalay Bay's House of Blues. "Inside Scarlet is one of the premiere local bands in Las Vegas. Their unique, yet distinctive sound sets them apart from the pack. When you hear and watch this band you get the feeling you will soon be paying high ticket prices to see them in a major venue or stadiums. Inside Scarlet is definately making a name for themselves and certainly has the potential to become a major act in the music industry." - Chris "Ripley" Ewing – APD / Music Director - X-107.5 X-treme Radio Las Vegas |

Artist History
Inside Scarlet is one of Las Vegas' most popular rock acts. The band's fiery blend of melodic hooks and alt.guitar dynamics recently shot them to the top of the playlist at Vegas' Xtreme Radio (with their song "September"), and snared them a mention in the Rolling Stone. Their live show has made them a favorite at such showrooms as Hard Rock Hotel's Joint, MGM Grand, and Mandalay Bay's House of Blues and has gotten them recent opening slots for bands like FUEL, BUSH and STONE TEMPLE PILOTS!
The Skinny
From its humble beginnings on the Vegas cafe circuit, Inside Scarlet has managed to distinguish itself from the throngs of other burgeoning bands popping up around the Vegas valley, where alt. bands are a dime a dozen. The foursome has even managed to develop a strong presence with an impressive following.
The Bigger Skinny
Since the band's music fits right in with the X-treme Radio (107.5 FM) format, members have been able to secure themselves as permanent fixtures in the local band showcases at the Huntridge Theater, House of Blues, The Joint and the Boston Bar and Grill. Can a nationwide tour be far behind? |

Press Reviews
In their near-30-minute set at the Hard Rock Cafe, the foursome put on not only a momentum-pushing and outright flawless performance, but also the most passionate and inspiring set of the conference. And despite the resonance that surfaced even more so than in their usual local gigs, Inside Scarlet never once seemed to be playing for industry attention. In fact, the act made it quite obvious this was for fun--and for the overwhelming amount of present fans who have supported them. Nevertheless, by the second song of their setlist, "September" (easily their best song and most obvious first single), the label godheads could've waved their business cards and stopped the show right there. But they let the band finish, doing the audience a favor and waiting to feed upon what deservedly should be the next signed band hailing from Las Vegas."— By Mike Prevatt and Jeff Inman Las Vegas City Life |
