Scrounge

Since meeting at Goldsmiths University in the middle of the last decade, Scrounge – Lucy Alexander (vocals, guitar) and Luke Cartledge (drums, vocals, electronics) – have been trying to express how it feels to be a young person living and working in a fast-changing metropolis, balancing the constant pressure cooker of making rent and staying healthy with a desire to make art and properly engage with the communities that actually make London what it is.

“Scrounge work wonders from a limited palette: within the sonic assault and battery of their songs, there is a deft use of space and textural subtlety… a breadth and depth that keep revealing more.” – The Sunday Times
