- Scarlet (band)
Scarlet was a UK based
vocal duo from Hull, East Yorkshire,England . They consisted of Cheryl Parker (vocalist,guitarist ) and Jo Youle (pianist ,keyboardist , vocalist). The group originally had a third member, Joanna Fox, but she left before the band had any major success.Career
The eventual twosome had their first UK hit with "Independent Love Song" (UK #12) in 1995, which was followed by their debut
album "Naked" (UK #53). The group's second UK single "I Wanna Be Free (To Be With Him)" became a minor hit (UK #21), whilst the next single release "Love Hangover" flopped (UK #54).In 1996, Scarlet issued a new single "Bad Girl", but this also stalled at #54. The album "Chemistry" missed the
UK Albums Chart completely, and it was after this relative failure that theirrecord label WEA dropped the band and they went their separate ways."Independent Love Song" can be found on the
soundtrack to the movie "Bed of Roses ".Discography
