STEREOPHONICS, RICHARD ASHCROFT, PULP, THE CHARLATANS and BADLY DRAWN BOY have contributed songs for a tribute album to the late SCOTT PIERING.

Piering, a legendary TV and radio plugger, helped many bands when they first started out. Following his death from cancer two years ago, many of those bands played a charity tribute concert for Scott at London’s Scala in April.

Performances from that evening will now feature on the tribute album. ‘4Scott’, released on August 26. It includes Pulp’s ‘Babies’,Stereophonics’ ‘Just Looking’ and Richard Ashcroft performing ‘Bitter Sweet Symphony’.
