"Scotch Hollow"

Scotch Hollow's new sound is like a sweet smack in the face. Their talent lies in great capacity in creating a goth-country- blues fusion through a high energy live show. The show at Middle East is going to be an intimate one, so go check them out! - Writer: Jack Cat; Boston Shakes Weekly


"Scotch Hollow – Little Tortuga (Self-produced)"

Scotch Hollow – Little Tortuga (Self-produced): Scotch Hollow is a roots band that mixes a generous helping of country twang with just enough blues to stir the pot. The group was founded by Mark Verbeck (guitar, songwriter) and vocalist Carly Martin. Based in Kansas City, the group now includes JD Linn (bass), Benjamin Scholz (drums, percussion), Brady Buster (harmonica) and Joel Schuman (piano). Verbeck wrote all but three songs and those were written by Little Walter, Howlin’ Wolf and Blind Willie Johnson. The performances are solid and spare as one would expect for this style of music. They certainly can raise a little sand in the down-home way. The disc is expected for release in April, but click here for a live slice of a song on the new disc. - --Dave Rogers (University of Virginia WTJU)

Bio

Please visit www.scotchhollowmusic.com for update information. 

An explosion happened at Berklee College of Music when Mark and Carley met; they discovered a musical chemistry that they couldn't walk away from. Mark's hillbilly  punk-rock-loving self grew up in the Appalachian mountains in central Pennsylvania's;  Carley grew up in Kansas City taking in the historic blues and jazz music. After 8 years living Chicago and Nashville, they are now back in Kansas City.  They are joined by JD Linn on the bass, and touring throughout the mid-west, north-east and southern states.
