English rockers Scars on 45 stopped by the Paste Studio on July 10 and checked every box we offered them, playing a new song, an old song and a cover. First came an acoustic rendition of their hit “Crazy for You” (no, not that one) from their 2014 album Safety in Numbers ; next, a newly arranged version of Cyndi Lauper’s classic ballad “Time After Time”; and finally, the forthcoming single “Teenage Superstars,” which is sure to have you feeling nostalgic for the late ’90s. The group’s stripped-down performance showcased Danny Bemrose and Aimee Driver’s well-crafted, catchy hooks and strong vocals. Check out Scars on 45 live across the U.S. this summer and get ready for the release of their new LP this fall.
