Scrote is an innovative performer/producer from Los Angeles. In addition to his LA-based work, he also consistently works in San Francisco, Austin, New York, Berlin, and many places in between and beyond. He has performed across the US, Germany, Egypt, Holland, Spain, Switzerland, Hungary, France, Denmark, Belgium, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Austria, Czech Republic, Poland, Italy, Bulgaria, and Monaco. His latest release, “Pompadour” gives rise to more inky realms of our human psyche on less starless nights. The new recordings deliver inspired tracks with long associated studio & recording session players. Contemporary art is a known aspect that underlines Scrote's album concepts; The 2010 CD displays a cover image by renown modern artist John Baldessari while Pompadour unveils original art from medical patent illustrator/painter Tom Giesler. The title for his new release was selected from Facebook fan submissions in response to the cover & the lyrical concept about death, dying, murder, a womanly grim reaper, paranoia, isolation and manic depression - a real chipper collection! Pre-release of Pompadour will be available at shows beginning in Houston on 2/17 with official online release on March 1st. He recently finished producing 2x Grammy winner Bubba Hernandez's upcoming release, two albums for the new band The Stripminers featuring Brett Anderson of The Donnas & Paul Stinson of The Radishes, and an acclaimed new record from Brooklyn singer Will Scott.
