March 11, 2021Perfect Festival Band!
I booked Scarlett and the Fever to perform the annual craft beer festival, Coldxela. They entertained a crowd of 1,500 with a stellar mix of upbeat ska, reggae and soul music. The audience was a multicultural mix of craft beer fans ages 21-45.
Scarlett Brais is a fantastic front woman, engaging the crowd and commanding attention with her performance. The band as a whole was very professional on and off stage.
In an industry where many artists have unrealistic demands and expectations - Scarlett and the Fever were an absolute pleasure to do business with. I appreciated how they held up their end of our booking agreement by being punctual to soundcheck, helping to promote their performance across social media, playing within their allotted set time and putting on a fantastic performance.
What’s really great about booking the group is the diversity of music in their sets. They can literally entertain a multicultural - all ages crowd with ease. As a festival talent buyer this is a great resource, as you can book Scarlett and the Fever to do the job of three bands.
I highly recommend Scarlett and the Fever and I look forward to booking them for other events in the future.

About
Scarlett and The Fever is a musical group based out of Los Angeles, Ca with a vibrant fusion of R&B, classic-soul, reggae, ska and jazz.
The band was founded in 2014 by lead-singer/songwriter and keyboardist, Scarlett Brais. Scarlett is an expressive songstress who commands the stage with her crooning vocals and spirited energy. She is supported by a team of talented musicians, dubbed ‘The Fever’, who vibe together with charming authenticity and melodious ease. The infectious groove and heartbeat of the band is provided by The Fever rhythm section, which includes lead keyboardist, JR Calilung, drummer Chris Paniagua, bassist Antonio Carter, and Ben Ede on guitar.
The group’s liveliness and musical depth is further enhanced by a tight-knit horn section, which features Gladys Ng on trumpet and vocals, Ben Al-Mateen on trombone and vocals, and Garrett Becker on sax and flute. Pulsing drums, heavy bass rhythms, and catchy melodies accented by punching horn lines and virtuosic solos combine for an unforgettable sound and experience that will leave you with a fresh case of the feel-goods.
Since their formation in 2014, Scarlett and The Fever has attracted fans from all over the world with their refined showmanship and soul-driven music. Their self-produced 2016 debut album, Soul Ready, lead to features on radio/podcast shows including: The Reggae Show with Junor Francis (KXLU 88.9fm), International Reggae Station, Roots Time Radio, KUCI Radio and KPFK 90.7 FM. In 2017, the band made their national television debut with a live broadcast feature on ABC 7 in support of Spark of Love.
In 2019, Scarlett and The Fever teamed up with producer/bassist John Avila (Oingo Boingo, Reel Big Fish) to create their latest EP, Unbreakable. With lyrical passion and thoughtfully crafted songs, Unbreakable highlights the band’s ability to merge various genres into one cohesive style and sound.
2021 finds the band working on their forthcoming full length album, Awakening. While the gig season has slowed due to the global pandemic, The Fever continue to engage with their fans. Scarlett regularly hosts a livestream talk show called Fever Live!, which features intimate acoustic performances, special guest artist appearances, entertaining interviews, and thought-provoking conversation.
