Scott & Rivers

Japan-based collaboration between Scott Murphy from Allister and Rivers Cuomo from Weezer. After being introduced to Scott's Japanese language music and discovering they were both signed to Universal Music Group, Rivers asked the label to arrange a meeting. They met in Los Angeles in 2009, and soon began writing and recording an album of original songs sung in Japanese together. They both share lead vocal duties as well as play guitar in the group. Japanese musicians complete the group's lineup.
