Simon Scott (drummer)
Simon Scott (born 3 March 1971) is an English musician, mastering engineer and sound artist, best known as the drummer in Slowdive and formerly of Lowgold and The Charlottes. He also fronted Inner Sleeve/Televise, and has released ambient music as a solo artist.
Born in Cambridge, Scott first started drumming with female fronted Huntingdon band The Charlottes in 1987 at the age of 16, having recorded two studio tracks a year earlier as part of Honey Chainsaw. He left the Charlottes in 1990 to replace drummer Neil Carter in Slowdive who had supported them in London at The White Horse in Hampstead. He played on albums Just for a Day and Souvlaki, which was voted in The Guardian as "One of the top 50 albums to hear before you die" in 2007. Scott left the band after 5 EP was released in early 1994, prior to the band working on their third album Pygmalion, but rejoined in 2014 when they announced their reformation.
Scott formed and fronted Inner Sleeve in 1997 who released two singles in 1998 and an album Looking Up in 1999, all on the Fierce Panda label.
In 1999, Scott split Inner Sleeve up to join Lowgold following the departure of original drummer Paul Mayes, appeared on one track on the band's debut album Just Backward of Square and toured it extensively (supporting Coldplay and Grandaddy) with the band. He left the band in 2002 after the band ran into financial problems following the collapse of Nude Records. Demos recorded prior to the collapse of Nude and his departure were later released on the compilation Keep Music Miserable including the track ″Time Reclaims All Frontiers″, which was premiered at Reading Festival.
Scott then reformed Inner Sleeve as Televise with new musicians and signed to London record label Club AC30. He has also played in the bands The Sight Below, Seavault (on Morr Music), Chapterhouse and Conformists (with Jasper TX).
In 2006, Scott established an electronic experimental record label KESHHHHHH Recordings, working as a musician and sound artist from his Cambridge recording studio and was remixed on an album called 88 Tapes by Lawrence English, Sawako, Moskitoo, Greg Davis, Benoit Pioulard, Christopher Bissonnette, Mark Templeton, and many more.
2009 saw the release of Scott's debut solo album, Navigare on Miasmah Records. Reviews called it a "Tour-De-Force" and UK music website Boomkat said that the album "transcends the usual parameters of drone music".
In 2010, Scott released the limited 7" "Depart, Repeat". A second album called Bunny on Miasmah was released on 7 October 2011. Scott also performed at Seattle festival Decibel the same year.
