A born storyteller, through his records and his writing Scott Lavene has long been populating a hallucinogenic world of his own creation with ne’er do wells, ragamuffins and eccentrics. With his exceptional third album Disneyland In Dagenham set for release this May via Nothing Fancy, Lavene heads out on the road again, having just done a circuit of the UK in support of The Hold Steady’s Craig Finn.
"Full of great poignant, funny and sad songs that display the man’s great writing talents. At times he’s David Bowie, Syd Barrett and Ian Dury at the same time.” ––Louder Than War
"Mordant, spivvy, pop-punk TMI gabble about the urgency and futility of it all from lyrical Essex motormouth." ––MOJO
“Think Baxter Dury’s warped kid brother.” ––The Times
“Sounds like an updated version of something that Stiff records would have released in the 70’s.” ––Steve Lamacq
