Under the Broken Scar moniker, Kevin Teh, a charismatic singer-songwriter from Malaysia has made head turning music and delivered memorable performances pumped with high energy from the very first show as a solo act. Ask anyone in the Malaysian music scene and they will tell you that Kevin is like a kid on sugar high.

With the release of the his debut album “Midnight In St. Kilda” in 2006, there was no turning back. The first two singles from the album, “Scratch” and “Down” hit the number one spot on the Xfresh FM Independent Charts. “Venus In September” was also featured in a number of compilation albums as well as the popular Malaysian teen television series, “Kami”.

Over the years, Broken Scar has gone through various incarnations from performing solo to a duo and finally to a full blown band. Kevin played shows relentlessly and toured nationwide to reach his audiences armed with a set list of high octane anthems to laidback heart-melting ballads. The shows varied from intimate spaces such as No Black Tie and The Laundry to stadium sized concerts when Kevin and the band performed at Rock The World 7, Malaysia’s largest annual music festival. Kevin has also ventured overseas to Singapore and Australia.

2008 has seen the launch of Broken Scar’s Double A-Side Single, “The Shooting Star”. This release highlights two sides of the band; the ballad-esque acoustic side through the catchy chart topping single, “Shooting Star” and the heavier side through “Until I Fall”. That’s not all, the band has also thrown in two bonus acoustic tracks, “Shooting Star (Acoustic Version)” and a light-hearted track, “The Alien Song” in this release.

This is the band’s way of saying thank you to all their fans and friends for the support throughout the years. They have put together a sleek website in a form of an online EP to launch these songs which includes live videos from the band’s latest gigs featuring live versions of the new songs, lyrics, credits, thank you notes and heaps of pictures. You might just find yourself or someone you know in those pictures.

As promised, these songs are released in a brand new format and best of all, they are available for free. There are no physical copies of this release as it is purely online and it can be found at: www.brokenscar.com
