BIOGRAPHY
If Scott were to post up with his guitar at a New York subway transfer station—or downtown Austin, for that matter, he might put a dent in the local economy with the number of people who stuck around to listen. Exploring love, loss, heartbreak, desire, self-doubt, ambition, and anxiety his debut self-titled LP, finds strength in vulnerability - and that vulnerability is his armor.
Relocating to Austin in 2013, forming the ‘Scott Strickland Band’ and releasing two critically acclaimed EPs ‘Fly to the Sun: The Eastern Sun Sessions (2015)’, and ‘Try This Love (2016)’, both undoubtedly had comparisons to contemporaries Seal, or Dave Matthews - but trust that if you could sing this way, you would sing this way. Despite his aesthetic, when Scott’s idiosyncrasies shine through the music, it’s so easily absorbed that one may overlook its sophistication, to that reminiscent of Ritchie Havens, Bill Withers, David Crosby or Joni Mitchell (albeit with a thoroughly modern sound).
