Skarlett Riot

Formed in Scunthorpe, England, Skarlett Riot sits on a fault line between modern hard rock and melodic metal, driven by lead singer Skarlett’s clear voice and tight, rhythmic guitar work. Active since the early 2010s, the band first made an impact with a self‑titled EP in 2010, followed by Villain in 2012, before releasing their full‑length debut Tear Me Down in 2013, which established Skarlett Riot on the British rock scene. Built around a classic four‑piece lineup—vocals, guitar, bass, drums—the group has sustained club tours and appearances at specialist festivals across the UK and Europe, cementing their place on the live metal and hard rock circuit. The EP We Are The Brave (2015) signaled a heavier, more melodic direction, continued by the albums Regenerate (2017) and Invicta (2021), featuring more pronounced riffs, often faster tempos and particular attention to sung choruses. Skarlett Riot’s style balances metal energy, accessible song structures and occasional touches of melodic metalcore, with production tailored for the contemporary UK alternative and metal stage.
