Scustin are a “post-funk” Dublin band that combine humorous storytelling with a jazzy funk take on indie rock. 

Their sound was created by imagining what would happen if Blindboy, Mike Skinner and Jamiroquai went for a boozy night out in Bray and wrote an album about it. 

'The Candyman' tells the tale about two argumentative patrons of the Irish music scene who meet at their favourite music venue. Pints are flowing, accusations are made and chaos ensues. Scustin immerses the listener in their world on this occasion through interactive storytelling and injecting them with atmospheric guitar textures, funky rhythms, spoken word and catchy melodies.

The band began gigging in January and have quickly become renowned for their interactive, high energy live show. During the Summer they completed a UK & Irish tour which saw them spend four nights in London, sell out gigs in Cork and Dublin and score shows at All Together Now and Electric Picnic.
