The Mascara Story were a three piece post-hardcore band from Derry, Northern Ireland, consisting of Daveit Ferris (Guitar/Vocals), Sean Keddy (Bass) and Jay Dickson (Drums). Formed in 2004, the band won the Snickers Unsigned Contest in June 2005 and played the Download Festival in Donnington during 2005. Their first and only single, This Is Not A Bruise, was recorded and produced by Pedro Ferreira (Tokyo Dragons, The Darkness). It went to Number 13 on the "BBC ROCK CHART", and the video was aired on Kerrang! TV for a brief period.

The band broke up in October 2005 after a whirlwind tour with Reuben/Fighting With Wire and reported rumours of drummer Jay Dickson's fall out with singer Daveit Ferris.

The band recorded the following songs:

  • This Is Not a Bruise
  • About Last Night
  • Episode
  • Safety Pin
  • Cue the Violins
  • I can see your point... its a knife
  • Crowds of more than one
  • Gretchen Works in Starbucks

Jay Dickson currently plays in the band Rescue the Astronauts. He is sponsored by Mapex[1].
