A SCRAPEGOATS TAIL
As a musician of over 30 years, I have never allowed myself to be defined by a genre. Although my oldest roots go back to singing and playing guitar around the campfire with my father and his cowboy buddies of the Old West Society, mostly on older/outlaw country, I spent many years of my youth and my days as a young adult performing many different styles of music.
People see my performances and try to define me as Country, Americana or Bluegrass, but none can truly define my own unique sound that I have chosen to define as Highclass-Hoedown music. I believe as an artist one should not be afraid to allow any roots to bleed life into any written music, be it the anger of my metal days, the wild country of my youth, the jazz influence of my music school education or simply the influence of current artists that inspire me today. This in my opinion is being true to self and true to this beautiful adventure of being a musical artist.
“It has been my true pleasure to have been introduced to Scrapegoat’s music first through air-play on KBEK 95.5FM, at live performance in our Listening Room, and seeking out his shows at other venues. Listeners requesting Scrapegoats music, along with sold out shows, demonstrates the love felt for his/their energetic, diverse and innate musicality!” Mary Lodin, Station Owner KBEK 95.5 FM
“Scrapegoat has played a variety of venues for me
since 2005. His music is and always has been a crowd favorite. I have booked
him for anything from a small intimate gathering to large festivals with
thousands in attendance. No matter the venue,he puts on a great show.” Cassie McLemore, Vice President and Events Coordinator, Summer Tuesday, Inc.
“I have been booking Scrapegoat for 9 years and have always been blown away. I know the performance will be top notch. Every time he plays, we
have people dancing on the floor and calling for more. Playing originals as well as covers, I've never been disappointed. I can't wait to see what he has in store for the future.” Irv Geary, Owner/Winemaker Chateau St. Croix Winery, Wild River Vineyards, St. Croix Falls, WI.
“We have booked Scrapegoat, at the Hat Trick Lounge for well over a
decade. He is a consistent draw and favorite of Hat Trick regulars. We
appreciate his professionalism and the high energy, hillbilly and
country music he brings to the Hat Trick stage. I would highly recommend
Scrapegoat for club and event music booking.” Robin Shaw, Talent Manager, The Hat Trick Lounge, St. Paul, MN
“Scrapegoat does not disappoint, definitely one of my favorites in the St. Croix Valley!!” Doug Eraldson, Manager, Maple Island Brewery, Stillwater, MN
