Welcome to Butter...Band/artist history
The story of Butter begins in the summer of 1995. Dean Scott and a few other guitarists, jamming weekly in a crammed basement in Beltsville, Md., quickly add a ragtag group of musical misfits Jeff Millison on harmonica and Jay Endelman on guitar. We land our first gigs in the winter of 1996 at Remingtons, just off the military base in Fort Meade, Md. Sure enough, every week we had a gig, there was a snow or ice storm. It seemed ominous but we were undaunted. To the customer who tossed a dart into Martin’s leg as he was playing bass, thanks for the priceless memory. Also, to the regulars who asked if they could play our instruments while we were in mid-song---it’s a lot funnier now.
Over the years the band developed some pretty good straight ahead rock and roll, some swing, and threw in a wee bit of funk to keep things moving. After a couple of great shows at the National Press Club in DC in ‘97, we fell into the loving arms of the Baltimore/D.C. rock club circuit. Many of the clubs we played are gone or have new names (Baltimore’s 8X10, Sebastians in Annapolis, Lewies in Bethesda, and Chelsea’s in Georgetown) but hey, whose fault is that? In the meantime, we’re still out there, soldiering on into the night.
