BLUETONES music star Scott Morriss was one of the biggest stars of the 90s thanks to the group's success.<\/p>\n

These days the bass player has a very different job – and lives out in Japan with his family.<\/p>\n

Scott, 50, was a founding member of the English indie rock band The Bluetones in 1993, alongside his older brother Mark who was the frontman.<\/p>\n

In the UK charts the group scored 13 top 40 singles and three top ten albums. <\/p>\n

Their debut album titled Expecting to Fly reached the coveted number one spot and has since been certified Platinum. <\/p>\n

Although the group did not match the success with any of their other albums, their third outing Science & Nature reached number seven.<\/p>\n
