“A staple on the L.A. and Orange County music scene for 30 years, Sechman bid farewell to Southern California in October 2015, moved east and planted roots on the Outer Banks, where he wows audiences with his soulful voice and acoustic guitar artistry. His song list is more than a collection of classic rock; it’s a time capsule of music that, when opened and shared with younger audiences, illustrates through music how little the state of the world has ultimately changed in the last half-century — something Baby Boomers already know. His original work is as raw and truthful as Sechman himself. He has nothing to hide. Any battle scars he has are battle scars he’s earned, whether through choice or fate. In “The Hardest of Hearts,” he bares his soul about a particularly painful chapter in his life: “It’s a sad situation when it meets the eye/You think you’re headed out to sea/but there’s holes in your sail, and the wind’s a lie/When you’re nowhere, that’s all you’”
"Sechman finally released his first solo record. His self-titled disc includes 10 originals and a cover of Sonny Bono's "Bang Bang." The disc includes sharp playing and solid songwriting along with Sechman's rich, soulful vocals. The album was recorded with help from yet another rock cult figure, Emitt Rhodes."
“Cartwright points to the example of Scott Sechman, a Los Angles based singer/songwriter, who recently penned the song "I Can't Find My Dreams." Cartwright says, "The song paints the same mood as the songs heard on Bruce Springsteen's "The Ghost of Tom Joad," insprired by John Steinbeck's 'Grapes of Wrath.' ”
“If you enjoy 60s guitar classics combined with a smoky voice, head down to Renaissance Bistro this weekend to hear Scott Sechman. He's been around the block, but don't let that put you off. Seriously, when we last heard him play we were glued to our seats.”
