The story behind ‘But I’m Scared’
In 2009 we announced The Echo Session’s debut single, ‘Tell Me’. The 405 described it as “GENIUS. Beck does George Formby.” A mere seven years later this is the band’s second single.
The single has had great support including single of the week on BBC Radio Scotland’s Janice Forsyth show and airplay from Jim Gellatly on his Amazing Radio show.
‘But I’m Scared’ is an early studio recording from the Echo Session vaults, recorded by Joe Kane and mastered by Dave Cook.
The video for the single was directed by Flowers in the Dustbin video artist Keith Gerrard. The Janice Forsyth Show described it as “a montage of brilliant old cine footage of the band and Scottish life.”

“a robust example of retro power pop… those who remember the days when a song was more than a sequenced sample will no doubt find something to love here.” Bluesbunny
