Painted Scars announced debut EP and release new single ‘Won’t Give Up’

“Won’t Give Up” is the 1st single from the upcoming debut EP ‘Kintsugi’ by Painted Scars which will be released in August 2024.

The song is about confronting and rising up against something or someone who is keeping you from living the life you want or achieving the goals you want to achieve, a message many can relate to.

The inspiration for this song came from Jassy Blue’s own struggles with her illness, Cystic Fibrosis. This illness has long been something that has held her back in her singing aspirations and dreams. This song reflects her feelings on overcoming the disease to pursue her dream in music.

Painted Scars is a brand new heavy hitting hard rock band that was fully formed in April 2023. They recorded their first single “Life and Alive” in July 2023. The single was recorded at home by the band members and sent to an audio engineer in Germany for mixing and mastering. It received very positive reviews by local magazines and social media outlets.

As a try-out show, they organized a mini festival “Scarfest” in their home base in  Erpe-Mere, Belgium. The festival took place in August 2023. The show, being a great success, triggered a series of follow up shows in the same year.

The band is known for their high energy show that leaves first timers with a deep impression. Heavy riffs and blazing guitar solos, combined with melodic choruses provide the crowd with a mix of head banging and sing along moments. In 2024, the band recorded their first EP ‘Kintsugi’ , which will be released at the 2nd edition of Scarfest in August 2024.
