_Losing Scarlet is an original female-fronted Hard Rock / Metal Band from Chicago, IL. A thrashing gust of energy from the windy city itself, this Chicago rock band is ready to make a name for itself. Most people that see Losing Scarlet 'live' automatically think, “attractive lead singer, they could be interesting, but can she sing”? Those same people approach the band after shows and thank them for melting their face. Losing Scarlet has gelled extremely well in 2 years, and can about touch national recognition in every show that they play. Good things just continue to happen for this band.

Losing Scarlet is Jodi Kell (vocals), Scott Haith (guitar), Petra Sith (bass) and Shawn Kelly (drums). Once a show begins, everyone who wondered is now a believer as Losing Scarlet’s energy smashes out of nowhere and Jodi draws you in with an infectious stage presence. Losing Scarlet blends romp head-banging with an in-your-face groove that culminates in their own brand of “pretty metal”.

Losing Scarlet has spent the last 2 years consistently playing live, perfecting their stage presence, headlining shows and opening for national acts when the opportunity presents itself. Losing Scarlet has opened for national recording artists Five Finger Death Punch, Nonpoint, Dirge Within, Soil, Days of the New, Tantric, Taproot and for Sony recording artist Bullet For My Valentine.

Losing Scarlet is regularly written up in newspapers and in print and on-line rock magazines. This diligent band has been reviewed in the Chicago Sun-Times and Chicago Tribune as well as local and regional radio stations Q101 (Chicago, IL), 95.1 WIIL ROCK (WI/IL Border), 96.7 (Rockford, IL), 94.7 – The Razor (Green Bay, WI) and ROCK 108 (Cedar Rapids, IA).

Losing Scarlet coordinates and headlines an annual benefit called Musician’s Care that raises money for the American Cancer Society. 2010 marked their 3rd event where Losing Scarlet hosted 11 other bands for a day of rock/metal music with all proceeds being donated to this worthy cause.

Although the gritty band enjoys rocking their home town venues in Chicago such as the Metro and Double Door, Losing Scarlet recently completed their first national tour in Summer 2010. After being asked to play at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas, a tour was booked and kicked off at the Lake County Fair in our backyard then moved on to Nebraska, Colorado, Arizona and Nevada all in a span of 8 days. The tour culminated in a headlining show at the Wasted Space nightclub in the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas! The band was jacked and played a flawless show; the venue was equally excited!

Losing Scarlet released their 2nd CD Learning to Bleed in March 2011. We will follow-up the release with a full schedule of live shows and acoustic appearances to support the release. The band will tour throughout the United States this year. Shows, promotional appearances and updated information can be located at www.losingscarlet.com, Facebook, MySpace and Twitter. Losing Scarlet’s music is available on over 60 domestic and international digital download sites including Itunes, Amazon and Napster. The CD can be purchased on our website and at Rolling Stones Records in Chicago, IL. Videos can be viewed on You Tube and on our website as well.
