Scott Orr
NORTH AMERICANA
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Scott comes from a dedicated musical family with generations of gifted talent. Scott started playing drums at the age of three, following in the footsteps of Phil Collins. At age twelve he began playing guitar and writing songs.
Today, Scott is dedicated to song-writing. He has just recently completed a 3 song demo Ep. This process of writing and recording a record has been chalked full of both good and bad experiences. Its similar to school in where you know that the end result of what your doing will produce great results, but that doesnt ease the process you go through to achieve those results. It is definitely hard work, a lot different from merely playing and singing in your bedroom. But that feeling is priceless when you hear the final track played back, its great.
Scotts musical style is likened to an alt-country/folk/roots sound. Currently, Scott continues to play intimate acoustic venues across Ontario but is mainly focused on writing for an upcoming record.
The all new 3 SONGS EP is slated for release in May 2005 with hopes for a full record sometime in 2006.
