Scouting For Girls are a Pop Rock band from London.

If you liked the two singles I can guarantee that you will like most of the rest of the album as much of it follows on from the singles with a very good pop sound and excellent repetitive pop lyrics and if you like the singles then go and buy the album. I think this is a band you either love ...
