Scales Of Motion

The three of us, brothers Kevin and Chris Skillern and good friend Craig Maricle, started playing together way back in July of 2001 when we were just teenagers. We really love what we do and are so grateful to still be doing it after more than a decade. In our time together, we’ve played hundreds of local and regional shows, toured the Midwest, recorded multiple albums, opened for our musical heroes, and met and befriended countless amazing people and bands. Even after a decade, we still find excitement and joy in every endeavor. Every new song written is a chance to explore new sounds and influences. Every show and conversation is a chance to share and build community. In music, as in life, we hope to always be progressing. We believe in love, hope, friendship, and community, and we strive to write music that embodies those things. In 2011, we self-released Nocturnes, an album we feel is our most accomplished musical statement to date and one which pushes us in all sorts of new directions. Fresh and rejuvenated as ever, we’re ready to introduce ourselves to a wider audience, and we can’t wait to see where the next decade takes us! ...in the ocean.
