Scam: Performing Group in New York

About Scam

Scam is a group working in free-form music, with sets that lean into open structures and shifting textures. In New York City they appear at Sleepwalk, including bills presented by Lobster Tooth Records alongside Bummer Camp and Minaxi. Their approach prioritizes pacing and timbre over conventional song form, leaving room for abrupt turns and long, patient builds. On streaming platforms they also register in “brazilian phonk,” suggesting a wider listening context than their live format.
