SUPERSCOPE


Superscope evolved from the ashes of legendary Perth power popsters, The Stonemasons with Kevin Borruso (vocals/guitar), Darren Murphy (bass) and Jason Barfoot (drums). They started with a bang...a muscle guitar pop EP 'Generally Electric' with Citadel Records in 1995, oodles of touring and a definite buzz on the band. With a lineup change Gerry McAvoy on bass (ex-Jack and The Beanstalk) and Shane Bolton on drums they followed this up with a leaner sound, more power pop and still had peers astounded. In cahoots with international recording label Zip Records and overseen by such pop luminaries as Dom Mariani (The Stems/Someloves/DM3), Ash Naylor (Even) and Ken Stringfellow (Posies/REM), the 'Scope' developed markets in Europe, South America, USA as well as Australia through the release of two singles and a full-length album 'Torpedo'.
