Scott Orr, est.1983, comes from a dedicated musical family with generations of gifted talent who have always built on the creativity of their Irish roots.

It was natural then for this young Orr to redefine the word “playing” in childhood to include drums, whistles, stringed instruments, & recording equipment. While his friends were excelling in sports and academia, Scott was teaching himself the business that he would grow to embrace with a maturity that was beyond his years.

Maturity would not only come through his ability to develop his talent but through personal loss. Scott’s work reflects his emotional connection with music and his capacity to empathize with his fellow travelers.

His first professional offering is his thesis to the natural development of his music career – a place to test his theorems on music. Taking nuances and lilts from various genre Scott explores the sounds of cross culture while maintaining a solid foundation of earth based lyric. The resulting alt-country/folk/roots sound expands the previously unexplored.

After completing the 3 SONG EP with ORCANA PRODUCTIONS, Scott signed to work on a full length record with producer Trevor Titian. The artist/producer relationship developed around the production and pre-production of his demo. Scott explains, “It takes a while to gain someone’s trust and it takes even longer to entrust someone with your music.” Their relationship is based on a mutual passion for great music. “ We both understand the exact shade of red...in that we don’t have to explain what we mean when discussing a certain sound.” The confidence we hear on the first project evolves from this working relationship.

Although Scott thrives in the studio, the intimacy of live work is not lost on this natural performer. He is comfortable on stage with only his acoustic guitar and a mic. This speaks to the innate talent that lies in this son of Hamilton.
