'''Scott & Rivers''' is a side project of [[Rivers Cuomo | Rivers Cuomo] with Scott Murphy from Allister featuring songs written and sung almost entirely in Japanese.  In 2009 Rivers began writing songs in contention for an upcoming solo Japanese album he was working on that was originally tentatively titled ザ クマモトキッド (The Kumamoto Kid), but would later develop into Scott & Rivers.  He enlisted the help of some fans through the music collaboration website [http://www.indabamusic.com/ Indaba Music], offering payment for better produced versions of the demos he posted.
