SCOTT METZGER – WOLF!, BUSTLE IN YOUR HEDGEROW, JOE RUSSO’S ALMOST DEAD
What will you remember most about 2013?
2013 was a great year for me. A year that saw a lot of personal goals reached, and a year of new beginnings. One thing that really stands out, though, is touring with Trixie Whitley. She’s an incredibly talented, authentic artist and musician-if you don’t know her music, do yourself a favor and check her out. You won’t be disappointed! We toured Europe for two months solid playing to sold out, gorgeous theaters all over the continent. We also went to my favorite place on earth, Japan and did a week of shows there. A real highlight.
What album or albums have you listened to this most this past year?
Slim Harpo – The Excello Years. The best!!

The Montreux Jazz Festival with Trixie Whitley
Joe Russo’s Almost Dead at The Capitol Theater/Brooklyn Bowl
Kid Rock’s ‘Chillin The Most’ cruise with Shooter Jennings
Central Park Summer Stages with Anders Osborne
