Another Scandal, a 'Sometimes'band based around West Sussex consist of a core of two musicians, Bob Daniels and Michael 'Bomber' Stevens. This Core is frequently augmented by various other local musicians and their own 'George Martin' Producer and Engineer Pete Troughton.

A full time third member of the band was active between 1998 and 2006, Michael 'Mel' Smalley was added as an additional vocalist early on in their life quickly becoming a second lead vocalist within the project ( Bomber handles nearly all of the lead vocals, Bob has only ever twice dipped his toe in the water in that direction taking the lead duties on both 'Man In A Booth' from the Double CD 'Emotional Vandal' and 'Astronaut' from 'Bebo'

Anscans first Album was 'Pass The Hat Round' a cds worth of good songs considering they were only meant to be writing one for old times sake!

Mel eventually after much to-ing and fro-ing ( He had a stroke at 40! )emigrated to New Zealand with his wife Wendy

After a 3 year sabatical Bomber and Bob drifted back into the safety of Studio Studio outside of Rochdale to write and record the bands 9th album 'The Ugly Stick Tree'. This time around old cohort John Maycraft was drafted in on guitars again but this time saw the arrival of Linda Troughton, daughter in law of Pete on Vocals, adding an additional dimension to the bands sound.

In July 2012 the duo along with Pete Troughton completed their next album tentatively titled 'Blue Bones', again featuring some strong melodies and some severely catchy songs
