Event
Scott Law
Scott Law embodies the ideal of the American Guitar Master; a brilliant and versatile instrumentalist, Law has connected onstage with many of the foremost in contemporary American music - among them Phil Lesh & Friends, String Cheese Incident, Melvin Seals, Bill Nershi, Yonder Mountain String Band, Tony Trischka, Railroad Earth and many others. Scott's alternately chiming and grinding melodic concept bears favorable comparison with everyone from the early Telecaster masters to Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jerry Garcia and Clarence White while creating a style that bears his unique stamp yet freely ranges over the entire history of the steel-string guitar. Scott's original compositions bridge pure guitar instrumentals and timeless songs that connect deeply with listeners, sparked by his rare rhythmic concision and rock solid groove.
Scott recently became an endorsing artist with Santa Cruz Guitar Company and had a great featured set at this year's NAMM Convention in Los Angeles. Law has scored and performed music for film and television, including an original song for the CBS primetime feature "Viva Laughlin" in 2007 and scores for 2 full-length documentaries by The Columbia Land Trust and Tom's Of Maine. He is a dedicated and experienced music educator, having taught at workshops, camps, schools, festivals and private sessions throughout his career.
Young in age and conception, Elephant Revival carries a fresh sense of creativity and inspiration that is felt by people of every generation. The neo-acoustic quintet is on the cutting edge of an emerging new genre that is known as Transcendental Folk. Individually and collectively the band members have performed with some of the most prolific performers of our time like Bela Fleck, John Paul Jones,
Michael Franti, Little Feat, Yonder Mountain String Band, George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic Leftover Salmon et al. In performance, Elephant Revival reveals hidden treasures deep within a vast repertoire of original material and a few carefully selected traditionals. Following the lead, but not the footsteps, of groups like Leftover Salmon and Yonder Mountain String Band, the five-piece Elephant Revival has created a unique and appealing modern acoustic sound simultaneously soaked in all manner of tradition.
