The Story of Scotty
In 7th grade. I had friends that played in the Jazz Band. I always loved music. But I never played. My friends formed a garage band. I used to hang out and watch. One day, the drummer didn’t show up… I said, “I’ll try!”
And that’s how being a musician started for me!
I’ve always loved being in bands… They’re like your own personal soap opera! A bit of tension, sometimes make you better musically! Look at all the Great Bands that hate each other.
My drumming style has always been heart felt. I have never taken a lesson, but my passion for music far outweighs my technical training! I feel like you never really just learn music… You just live it. The rest comes naturally.
Playing and writing has been such an outlet for me - ”Music can Soothe a Savage Beast”. I know, it’s a cliche… But, cliches can be true! I don’t know of another drug that can bring your heart rate both up and down.
The craziest moment I ever had while playing was the crowd surfing incident! Not many people get to see that from my vantage point!
