Scarlet Stories

Powerful, dynamic vocals and melancholic melodies blended with temperamental chords create sinister tales and carry you away into the stories told.

Scarlet Stories explores the dark corners of the world in their progressive, eclectic music; one moment fragile and delicate and the other intense, passionate and fierce!

Scarlet Stories originally consists of Bram te Kamp and Lisette van den Berg (Ayreon, Karmaflow) who started out creating melancholic acoustic songs heavily influenced by progressive metal. In the fall of 2012 they decided to accept the challenge to sculpt their music in both an acoustic and expanded form. By joining forces with Tim Kuper (Kudra Mata), Carmen Raats (Witte Wieven) and Maarten Grimm (Triangulum), Scarlet Stories creates a unique type of dark progressive music with an eclectic range of musical influences. The stories told are about mankind's darkest emotions & acts, inequity, beauty and murder; written to make you think about the world we live in and delivered with an impressive and dramatic live performance.

​Scarlet Stories was support act for Antimatter, Danny Cavanagh (Anathema), Gus G & Marty Friedman, Stream of Passion, KLONE and more. After releasing two EP albums, Scarlet Stories is now working on their first full-length album! The music video of the first single of the album 'Vingt mille lieues sous les mers' was released in October 2018 during their successful crowdfunding campaign. In 2019 they return to the studio to record the album together with producer Joost van den Broek (Ayreon, Navarone, VUUR, Marcela Bovio, MaYaN)!
