Scars on 45

[1] After years struggling to become known in England, the band rose from obscurity when their song "Beauty's Running Wild" was featured in an episode of CSI: New York.

The band's single, "Heart on Fire" was selected as the lead song for the eighth series's soundtrack on ABC's top-rated hospital drama, Grey's Anatomy.

[8] When a broken foot ended lead singer Danny Bemrose's professional football career as a striker for Huddersfield Town A.F.C., he earnestly decided to learn how to play his father's guitar.

Bemrose taught Nichols to play bass as they spent the next few years improving their skills and making computer recordings to develop their music.

After adding pianist/keyboard player David "Nova" Nowakowski, the band began playing the local music scene, rounding out their performances with a variety of other guitarists and drummers that came and went over time.

Soon thereafter, Nova was at home playing The Cure's "Friday I'm in Love" while his visiting schoolmate, Aimee Driver, was making a cup of tea and chimed in with the lyrics.

"It tells the tale of young kids that fall in love, going through the years, and at the very end, the old fella walks back to the tree where they'd carved their names, and she's passed away.

[3] In addition to CSI: New York and Grey's Anatomy, they have also had their music featured on TV's One Tree Hill, The Cleaner, Pretty Little Liars, Warehouse 13, Lost Girl, and Supernatural.

Their second EP with Chop Shop Records, Heart on Fire, debuted on 24 October 2011, as well as the band's cut of the music video, also directed by Bahat.

In the winter of 2012, the band conducted their first headlining tour of North America, featuring support from solo artist Anya Marina who is also signed to Atlantic's Chop Shop record label.

The band made their American network television debut as musical guests on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on Friday, 2 March 2012.

On 10 August 2012, Scars on 45 played a show back home in Bradford, Yorkshire, England, at The Live Lounge (also known as Utopia) which was a venue dedicated to supporting local musicians.

In September 2012 Scars on 45 embarked on their first European tour, supporting American recording artist/songwriter Joshua Radin, including dates in Sweden, The Netherlands, Germany, England, Scotland and Ireland.

In November 2016, the hit CW television show Reign featured the band's song "Golden" in the 5th episode of season 3, titled "In a Clearing".

In February 2021 Scars on 45 had four music credits in the movie short Patrick, three self penned songs "Love Can Tear Down Walls", "Soul Saver" and "Tomorrow Never Knows" and Lisa Swain Bennet's "Til Then".
