White Pines is the side - project of Michigan singer/songwriter Joseph Scott (Canada, That’s Him! That’s The Guy!). A Face Made of Wood EP, White Pines first release, was recorded in Scott’s apartment and features rich guitar arrangements, percussions and strings. Scott’s voice is sincere and optimistic, making the somber tracks seem more hopeful than heart heavy, yet the songs are rich with melodies and elaborate instrumentation recalling the best of the Michigan’s folk scene. White Pines is just getting started, with recording underway for a full-length album to be released this winter. – Written by JFelton - RecordDept.com

Bio
White Pines began as a secondary outlet for singer/songwriter Joseph Scott. His primary band (Canada, Quite Scientific Records) went on a much needed break in 2008, which afforded Joseph the opportunity to spend some time living in Brooklyn. With extra time on his hands, a homemade studio in his apartment, and more songs than he knew what to do with, Joseph's fledgling solo project soon developed into a full-time band. White Pines' first EP was released in June of 2009.
This past summer, the songwriter toured the United States extensively, sharing tours with bands such as 'Cotton Jones', 'Strand of Oaks', 'Frontier Ruckus', 'that's him! that's the guy!', and Samantha Farrell. He is currently recording a full length album, which is due to be released this winter.
