Just remembered
Love and Money ( fronted by James Grant )
Scott is from Edinburgh, but I don't think the band ever had it's roots in Scotland.
Frankie Miller , one helluva singer. Last time I saw him live was a club gig with Brian Robertson on guitar and Simon Kirk on drums.
They do have some great pop songs I guess, some real anthems too, and some real quirky and heavy stuff, but as a musician they are just really interesting. They use odd time signatures, often that switches through the song or even each bar, they can play really heavy stuff, stadium rock, an acoustic ballad and it all works and sounds real.
Their output is of an excellent quality generally and they are pretty eclectic musically. Simon on first look is a heavily tattooed Scot that beats a guitar in to submission but he seems very talented and his lockdown shows from his house had him playing songs solo with completely different arrangements to the originals.
Live they are 100mph, loud and so tight as a band.
Edit: mentioning live lounge it's worth checking YouTube for their cover of WAP I think it shows their sense of humour perfectly.

live in the 13th Note (glasford street), seen Bis in there too possibly on the same night, before the move to Ingram street.
