Music

I play bass, steel guitar and write songs.

I write in a variety of 70s/80s/90s pop music styles (meaning I like guitars and have an ill-advised disdain for autotune). I most admire offbeat writers with a wry sense of humor and ear-friendly melodies. Listen to some of my recent work on Bandcamp or visit c6a7.org for links to other streaming services.

About

Hello, I'm Scotty Houston.

I am a generalist by nature. I grew up working on a small family dairy before attending the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. My professional background is diverse and includes Braille sign design and manufacture, publishing administration and royalty accounting at a boutique music agency, web infrastructure management, data analysis, graphic design, public transportation, baking and pastry making (in four states), and graveyard shifts at an urban convenience store.

After hours I am a songwriter and musician. I've played in Bay Area bands 100 Watt Smile, The Mighty Lynch-Pins, The Verms and many others as well as groups in the NH Seacoast Region such as Umbrellahead, the Jumbo Circus Peanuts and Thanks to Gravity. In recent years I've returned to my love of songwriting and in August 2022 I released Fiesta Red, my sixth collection of songs since 2015.

I'm a Linux enthusiast and create all my music on that platform.
