Leaving Scarlet:
Two Dynamic Women.
Three Lead Voices.
One High-energy Rock & Dance Party!
"Leaving Scarlet is an absolute smoke show of a band! High energy, rock your ass off kind of band that'll keep you dancing ALL night long!"
~ Susie C, Co-host, The WRMN Morning Show 1410 AM
Leaving Scarlet is the explosive Chicagoland rock and dance cover band guaranteed to deliver an unforgettable escape. We are the band that won the WDRV 97.1 The Drive Battle of the Bands semi-finals and performed on the big stage at the NASCAR Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet!
Featuring the three lead vocal talents of Cindi, Jackie, and Rick, we tear through massive rock anthems and killer dance hits. Our members have even opened for national acts like Warrant, Enuff Z'Nuff, Foghat, and Skid Row. We bring serious musical chops with zero attitude!
"They are total pros, easy to work with, they promote hard. Very fun band. Danceable music. Our crowd loves them!"
~ Jeanne Kief, Kief's Reef, McHenry, IL
The Leaving Scarlet Story: Your Escape Awaits!
We aren't just here to play songs. We are here to create an unforgettable escape for you.
When you come to a Leaving Scarlet show, you aren't just a spectator. You are part of the loudest, most fun party in the room! We deliver the rock and dance hits you crave with the dynamic power of our two leading women, and we guarantee maximum interaction. What’s in it for you? A chance to leave the week behind, grab a cold beer, dance, sing your heart out, and even grab a percussion instrument and play along with the band! Make fantastic, hands-on memories with friends!
"You have to see Cindi play drums and sing lead all in the same night—it's wild! This band has serious talent, but they never take themselves too seriously. Pure fun, every time."
~ Rick T., Fellow Musician
