How Flowers Grow

Hailing from Santa Cruz, CA, hardcore band Scowlhas burst onto the scene as one of the most authentic young voices in the genre, influenced by everything from 80s’ hardcore, punk and Oi to modern alternative pop. The band has made a name for themselves with songs that are as reflective and dark as they are fun.

Formed in 2019 and consisting of vocalist Kat, guitarist Malachi, bassist Bailey, and drummer Cole, Scowl came out swinging with their fuzzed-out self titled demo. Follow up EP Reality After Reality cemented them as one of hardcores rising star bands to watch, with anthemic tracks like “Retail Hell” quickly becoming staples of their caustic live set.
