Who Are We?

The Royal Scam is the world's premier Steely Dan tribute band. Playing more than 40 of Steely Dan's masterpieces, The Royal Scam has helped to keep the compositions of Donald Fagen and Walter Becker, the spirit of rock/jazz, and the enthusiasm of fine musicianship alive in small clubs and concert venues in the NY metropolitan area.

 

Musical Interests and Venues

Jazz, R&B, Latin, and Pop are among the major elements which make up Steely Dan's music. All of the many musicians who work with us from time to time have played most of these various styles and have contributed some very memorable musical moments for the band. We are grateful that we have worked with so many talented performers. In March of 1996, The Royal Scam was featured in a Star Ledger article about tribute bands and we have appeared on the cover of Steppin' Out Magazine. We have also appeared on The Jersey Spotlight television show and a live radio broadcast on WJDN. We have made appearances at the China Club, Kenny's Castaways, The Bitter End, Club Bené, The Rock and Roll Cafe, Essex County Summer Concert Series, Stephen's Talk House, and a host of other clubs which feature classic rock or tribute shows.
