Scott Garriott

"TOUCHING THE HUM OF THE UNIVERSE



With simple sounds and thoughtful lyrics that reach for timelessness, its obvious that Scott Garriott has already managed to tap into the very hum of the universe. His music transports you back in time. He brings back the unique folksy sounds of underground radio stations of the late 1960s. Not only that, with lyrics that harkin the wisdom of the ages and music that combines 21st century minimalist trends with cool careening flashes of medieval troubadors, he delights your ears with harmonious cacophonous surprises. Guitars, harmonicas, corkscrews, flutes, cool humming, fugues, interjections of sliding whistles and poetic lyrics all combine to diffuse your spirit with an inner smile that will grow with the unfolding of each new bittersweet song."

-Marcia Liss, a music fan from New York



"High output and dedication, as well as wildly innovative production techniques, may prove to be what floats Garriott to the top of the rising sea of local singer/song writer talent. One approach Garriott uses in his recording is to incorporate a unique plethora of musical instruments, some purchased at local thrift and dollar stores, and then mixing and master editing in bizarre but provocative ways that can create a truly disassociative vibe for the listener.Garriott looks at the creation of music as coming from two philosophies, the technical apertures of music crafting versus the organic nature of simple melodies and conveying basic emotion. While his music defiantly carries with it echoes of the best aspects of the 1960s, Garriott, with his Dylan-esque lyricism and semi-psychedelic undertones still finds inspiration in many different genres."
