Brisbane’s hottest new act the Cub Scouts have announced a Full UK Tour for this coming May. The band singles ‘Told You So’ and ‘Do You Hear’ have dominated Australia’s cooler Radio stations for most of 2012/13 and will hit the UK, for what promises to be a cracker of a tour. WATCH // Cub Scouts - 'Told You So' Dan Puusaari, drummer of the band said [...]
With tickets at twelve dollars a head, any self respecting indie-pop fan in Brisbane last Thursday would have had to have been either very busy or very broke to have missed Cub Scouts' performance at Black Bear Lodge. The lively five piece, however, were not the only locals to appear and were joined by fellow Brisbane natives Major Leagues and RODEO. Running behind schedule, my mate Andrew and I were nervously checking the time as we got off the train at Fortitude Valley, RODEO, who was taking the first set, was due to kick off any minute and a heated [...]
![[VIDEO] Cub Scouts – “Pool!”](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4861142_lg.jpg)
I couldn't stop grinning the entire time I was watching the video for "Pool!," the latest from the Australian group Cub Scouts . Maybe it was the because of the great one-piece swimsuits, the awkwardness of the background dancers, or the band actually doing their own synchronized routine - either way, it sure looked like the the band was having a great time making the video.
My love affair with Australian quintet Cub Scouts continues thanks to the band's latest single and video "Pool!" Have you ever watched a band you love perform and thought "I wonder what they'd look like as a synchronized swimming team"? No, me either, but in this lighthearted video, the band goes up against some seasoned [...]
Cub Scouts, hailing from Brisbane, Australia are a band to watch right now. After blowing up in 2012 with their catchy tune, "Evie", getting regular airtime and building their reputation in Australia, they moved in to the American market with "Told You So", which became a massive hit on US college radio. In between these two massive hits were tours with the likes of Ball Park Music, Pluto Jonze and Loon Lake to name a few, but 2013 is a new year and their ambitions are as big as ever. Diving in to 2013 with this perfect song, [...]

Cub Scouts - Told You So A few tidbits from Tim Nelson of Cub Scouts : On forming Cub Scouts... TN: I had been writing and recording songs solo for a little bit, then I wanted to do some full band stuff. I contacted people that I knew could play instruments to see if they would be keen to play with me - and they were! We played as 'Tim Nelson' for a while but we wanted it to be [...]
It's that time at last! Triple J Hottest 100 voting has opened. For those that don't let their musical intelligence be insulted by Triple J, this year promises to be another hard slog at getting those 10 tracks perfectly right, so that you can just tick them off as they come up one by one on the 26th January. Well... at least that's what it used to be like. It's been only 10 years ago now, that Queens of the Stone Age held the number 1 spot with their mental track "No One Knows", and only five years [...]
My mate Jack and I had the pleasure of attending local indie act Cub Scouts' EP launch last Friday at Alhambra. The Brisbane 5 piece's first release is titled Told You So , and it's one of the better Australian EPs we've listened to this year. Having already received a huge amount of buzz from Triple J for their first single "Evie", the band has followed up the hype with the release of four other equally as upbeat and catchy tracks, and the reflective "Light Me Up" to finish. When we chatted to Cub Scouts' marketing manager at [...]
I Told You So - Cub Scouts via
Local Brisbane act Cub Scouts have recently released their first EP Told You So , and we were able to catch up with Tim from the band to ask a few questions about their EP and future plans. SW (scenewave): How has your debut EP been received? T (Tim): I'm really happy with how it's been received, we've had some really nice reviews. SW: What influences do you draw from? T: It's hard to pinpoint our musical influences because there are lots of different artists we listen to. Things that influence [...]
Weekly Playlist 86 features Jake Bugg, Gui Boratto, Alt-J(∆), Cub Scouts, Placebo, Tame Impala, Foals and Kindness. Jake Bugg - Two Fingers wow. Can't get this out of my head. It's so refreshing to hear someone channel Bob Dylan/Oasis/John Lennon nowadays, exuding typical British winging - in this case on the topic of teenage rebellion. It may just be the beginning for this 18 year old Brit. RG Gui Boratto - Beautiful Life An old track that a mate let loose on me in Europe. Layers layers layers. [...]
On the Saturday of Valley Fiesta , almost immediately before they’re due to play their set, I meet with Tim [vocals], Sam [keyboards] and Zoe [bass] of CUB SCOUTS - recent winners of the Queensland Music Awards Song of the Year for their single ‘Do You Hear’ and three of Australia’s newest indie darlings (alongside bandmates Dan [drums] and Andrew [guitar]). We chat for a while about their success in the Queensland Music Awards, scooping up some incredibly prestigious titles like the aforementioned Song of the Year and [...]
Today's song is "Told You So" by Cub Scouts . This is the title track of the band's latest EP. If you're a fan of band's like San Cisco, Hungry Kids of Hungary, you're sure to love these guys. The video is a throw back to growing up in mid-902s Australia: Bubble o'Bill ice creams, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and hurling strawberries at your enemies. Watch below and for more information check out their official website and Facebook page. The post Song of the Day: "Told [...]
Brisbane-based five-piece Cub Scouts have just released a nostaglia-laden video clip for the lead single "Told You So", taken from their newly released EP of the same name. The clip is a throwback to growing up in mid-902s Australia - Bubble o'Bill ice creams, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and BMX bikes... All the fun stuff! Featuring this brand new tune and more, Cub Scouts' first physical release will also include their previous singles "Evie" and the Queensland Music Awards Song of the Year "Do You Hear" , [...]
It's fund drive time at KSVR and KSVU, and that means spending a little extra time in the studio. I arrived early and accompanied Stuarto during his show then he accompanied me during mine. I snapped the above shot of Stuarto before I took over the mic. He had an oldies theme going, playing tunes by the Rolling Stones, The Supremes, Willie Nelson and many, many more. My show, par the usual, was filled with the new. From new tracks off forthcoming albums by Book Club and The Pharmacy, [...]
Estes são os Cub Scouts , um quinteto Australiano de Brisbane que têm tentado singrar com o seu estilo indie pop ao longo do último ano. Esta "Told You So" é a faixa que dá nome ao EP de estreia da banda, uma música que é catchy desde a primeira audição. Por enquanto Tim, Zoe, Sam, Daniel e Andrew vão continuar a promover o seu EP, sendo que desejam lançar o álbum de estreia em breve. A nosso ver, é apenas uma questão de vontade, que o talento está cá! Conheçam ainda "Evie", malha que [...]
Australia is the home of 902s indie pop. Its a time-warp stuck in a fantasy of power-ranger simplicity in which big kids play with rubiks cubes and thrash skateboards in a non violent manner. Its largely populated with loveable man-children who's acid trips are yet to end but are starting to sense that something is horribly wrong. It spits out bands like Cub Scouts like no-longer-malleable hubba-bubba in big pink splodges on the sun baked side-walk.
"told you so" heißt die am 12. oktober erscheinende ep und hier bekommt man gleich noch was aufs auge. denn die cub scouts haben den wunderbaren popflüchtling ins bild gesetzt. die herrlichen 90s allegorien flirren durchs bild und verschaffen sogar dem unaufmerksamen beobachter einen warmen erinnerungsmoment. " bubble-o bill, teenage mutant ninja turtles, rubik's cubes and hubba bubba. " habt Ihr noch mehr gesehen? mit "evie" wird zudem bald ein singlerelease zu feiern sein, auf der rückseite wird sich "do you hear" befinden, ein track, mit dem die band den queensland music award abgeräumt [...]
