Bio

Scott Motyka is a no-frills melodic shred guitarist merging old-school fusion-rock vibe with modern day progressive metal. Imagine Robben Ford with Tool, performing Paul Gilbert’s ‘Scarified’, plugged into Joe Satriani’s JSX.

In 2009, be sure not to miss this unknown emerging Indie artist. With a new record in hand, and power trio on deck, Scott begins his mission, fighting the battle for your mind, one note at a time. Armed with a profound ‘secular spirituality’, he asks you to listen with courage, for it just may be -the sound of everything you believe, becoming a lie.

About

No-Frills, Melodic Shred.
Imagine Robben Ford performing with Tool, covering Paul Gilbert’s ‘Scarified’, using Joe Satriani’s Signature JSX Amplifier.

I’ve been at finding my voice and trying to get what’s inside, outside, using 6 strings pulled to tension for the better part of about 25+ years now. The guitar continues to inspire and amaze me every bit as the day I first heard her. I’m a bit of an eighties leftover, Olympiad-like in my earliest training and shred-a-licious in all my glory, with that, you'll find I'm always peaking into the rearview attempting to distance myself from those very same roots. Today, I'm most about conviction and trying to keep things real. I treasure organic tone, the kind that only burning tubes can provide. In my artistic pursuits, whether it be performing, recording, or teaching, I'm always searching for that next 'improvisational transcendence' - that moment when, during a solo, for just a short period of time, you elusively rise above the structure, beyond the notes, -and at once.. ...become the moment.
