Great Scott! was born in the Fall of 2002. 300 shows later, in three midwest states (Indiana, Kentucky, and Misssouri) and we are better than ever. Band members include Jason Kuykendall, drums; Chad Moore, guitar; Matt Nysewander, guitar; Jon Starks, bass; Brett Wiscons, vocals. We started out playing strictly covers but that all changed with the addition of several original tunes. Our first studio album was released in May of 2004 and has begun to receive air play at several radio stations around the Indianapolis area. Including z99.5, 89.3, 97.1, and 93.1.
At shows, Great Scott! mixes in a number of these originals on top of the endless covers we play. Our live shows is where it's at. We feed off of the crowd and we definitely get them involved. We have guest appearances from anyone and everyone. It's a fun, laid-back environment.
Our original music has traces of alternative, country, pop, and metal. We can go from an alt-country type of song like 'young & dumb', right into a straight up hard rock song like 'surrender', and then into a pop song like 'you and me'. And the fan favorite, 'what I got' is getting requested at every show! Our fans really enjoy our music, our energy on stage and our attitudes. Why else would they keep coming back? Maybe for the cheap drinks, but we think it's about the Great Scott! experience too.
With hundreds of shows under our belts we are as tight as ever and hitting our stride. We have begun work on new original tunes and hope to have another release in the near future. Hopefully we'll see you soon. Check us out on the web at greatscottmusic.com.
