Ill Scarlett

IllScarlett (styled as illScarlett; /ˌɪlˈskɑrlɨt/) is a Canadian rock and reggae band.

Their sound can be defined as pop infused rock reggae. They have made a name for themselves in the Canadian music scene and are making their name known throughout the United States and around the world. Their most prominent influence is California-based band Sublime.

The band found their break when they decided to play outside the 2004 Vans Warped Tour venue in front of fans waiting in line to get in. Kevin Lyman, the Warped Tour organizer and co-owner of Warcon Enterprises, noticed them and invited them to play at his personal barbecue. Subsequently, they were offered spots on the tour for the following two years.

IllScarlett has four major studio albums: ILLP, Clearly in Another Fine Mess, All Day With It, and most recently 1UP!, that they have finished in the studio with Robert Carranza in Hollywood, a three-time Grammy-winning producer and engineer based in Los Angeles. Carranza has worked with notable acts such as Jack Johnson, Mars Volta, Beck, Ozomatli, Mindless Self Indulgence, and Matt Costa, among others.

The new album titled 1UP! was released on September 29, 2009 throughout North America.

The album All Day With It reached gold status in Canada.
