Bio
SCOTT SAWYER has been making music for years, playing venues of every description: music clubs, beer-soaked dives and prestigious venues around the world. Though Sawyer can swing cerebrally, solving prickly harmonic riddles like a mathematician, he's at his best as a bluecollar improviser combining funk, earthy jazz and accessible blues that make the listener wanna holler.
He envisioned an electric power trio with a respect for space (the silence between the notes) to interpret his music & re-dos of other songs. Bobby Patterson & Kenny Soule were recruited from Dag and GO THERE enjoyed a cult following until life got in the way and ended it.
In 2007 Scott released a new album, "Go There" (w/ Soule, Kofi & Oteil Burbridge & Ron Brendle).
