This site is under construction - it's about the 70's Mod Revival band from Bradford UK.

If you have any photos, video or recordings of The Scene please send them to us.

How it all began

In October 1978 Musician and DJ Phill Harding was really into Mod style and music and he thought it might be pretty cool to form a Mod band.

Phill had a friend, Ian James, who was also into the whole Mod thing and was really keen to start a Mod band too.

Ian knew a guitarist. Dave Green had played in quite a few bands but was keen to join a band with a sense of style. The band was taking shape, but now a singer and a drummer were needed.

Phill's brother Ian had always wanted to sing in a band. A quick hair cut and suit later and he was in the band.

George Mazur had recently bought a drum kit and was keen to start playing them in a band, he liked 60's music, he heard that some mods were forming a band so he asked if he could join. The band was ready to rehearse...

And here's a short video I found of an early rehearsal. This was filmed on an 8mm movie camera by Phill...

And so it went on

There's a lot to say about what happened next... more info will be added soon. There's a MySpace page for The Scene here with some early audio recordings that are worth a listen.
