The Scouseness is the chaotic, brilliant project of Liverpool’s favourite parodic singer-songwriter. What started as a massive viral movement—amassing over 1.4 million likes on TikTok before a single track was ever officially released—has exploded into a must-see live touring act.
Fusing acoustic rock, reggae undertones, and brilliantly sharp, comedic lyricism, the project puts a uniquely scatty, Liverpudlian spin on popular culture and classic tracks. Audiences can expect an unforgettable night featuring signature records like All The Scouse Things and Scouser Queen. Equal parts high-octane gig and interactive comedy show, a performance by The Scouseness thrives on crowd participation, massive sing-alongs, and beautiful chaos.
The Scouseness are exactly what they sound like: pure, undiluted Liverpool, bottled and set to a ska beat. Their self styled “scatty Scouse ska” mixes skanking rhythms and big brass energy with quick fire comedy, daft lyrics and the kind of between song patter that’s half stand up set, half family argument.
This is a band that refuses to take anything seriously except a good time. Songs about everyday Scouse life collide with singalong choruses, crowd participation and moments of total, joyful chaos. One minute you’re dancing, the next you’re doubled over laughing, and by the end of the night the whole room is singing along whether they know the words or not.
With their album out now on Spotify and a growing reputation from gigs across the UK, from Manchester to Edinburgh, The Scouseness are building a following the old fashioned way: by being the most fun night out on the bill. If your idea of a great gig involves ska, silliness and a crowd that’s fully up for it, this one’s not to be missed.
