Well I hope you all are doing well. February is upon us and with it the promise of spring is right around the corner. I'm covering alot of ground this month with shows from Duluth, MN to Decorah, IA; and a few cities in between. The new album has brought a bunch of energy with it, and I'm Happy to see that the new material is making its way into the cosm..

The Lyrics will be posted under the music section here. I am currently working on getting those uploaded.

A few folks have been asking about the "next" album.. I can honestly say I'm not sure when It will be coming out... but my hopes are to have enough material together to put out the next installment by early fall. But I am not setting any dates on that as of now, playing shows and promoting the albums that have been released thus far is my main priority for the time being...

Thanks for continuing to support Me in my endeavors..

I look forward to seeing you at an upcoming show!

Let me just say, I love going to Duluth. It's a wonderful place! I am very appreciative for the opportunity to go back again and again. It seems as though there are always new people to meet and play for. Great to Meet Nate, and Beth. I'm glad you guys stuck around and enjoyed the music. Beth, I'm glad the music helped lift your spirits. I hope you enjoy the cd's and share my music with your friends. That hour long commute to work, well, you might get to hear the whole album going one way.

Jake and Kyle Are two excellent guys. Thanks for taking care of my thirst with a delicious array of Brews. It's nice to see familiar faces behind the bar.

I'm gonna Have some albums down at the Electric Fetus, So If you live in or visit the Duluth area and are interested in an album that you don't have, stop in and  pick up a copy.

 

Thanks for stopping By!

This was taken up in Bayfield out side of the ticket booth for Big Top Chautauqua... Sunday Afternoon Song Circle.

as I sit down to reflect on this day and this journey I am faced with not wanting to say anything. However, The CMT awards were in town last night,
I was at a place called the blue bar, apparently a private party was happening across the street at a place called losers, catering to the likes of Kid Rock and Toby Keith, yada yada yada ... I didn't meet any of them...:)

It's just been a really great experience to come down here and meet so many songwriters. It's really a great community of music... that's what makes this place so awesome...
Thanks to Eric and Gus for letting me crash at their house for a little more than a week, It would have gotten awefully uncomfortable if I would have kept sleepin in my car. well ... i would've done it, maybe...but I am blessed to have such wonderful people in my life. thanks very much...I feel my time is drawing to an end here in music city as business needs to be tended to back at the apple love music home...
Dec is an important month and Albums won't get released on their own...

this song took the better part of the afternoon to piece together,
I had started off with the chorus and 2 of the verses that needed a little work, but thanks to the fabulous tennessee afternoon, gus and eric's porch- this song is now done.

well , after sleepin in my car last night behind the douglas corner bar... I headed down to broadway and plugged the parkin' meter for the 2 hours it would hold...I set up in the entrance of the alley right across from the
gruhn guitars and the honkey tonks that line that side of the street.
I had a lot of smiles, there was a hummer full of girls who loved my voice, I earned a 1 $ tip and sold a cd to some friendly folks from france whom I met on monday night! thanks yoan and company! I ate my lunch on that money!...while ordering my meal, I received a little chastising for my "make music not war" t-shirt. Apparently a lot of great songs have been written because of wars which is why the two things can and ought to co-exist. maybe this guy patrick missed the point. Then he followed up by giving me a lesson in latin... panera is translated ---bread time? so panera bread! is Bread time bread! I still feel like the silly one! funny nonetheless.

the writer's last night at the douglas corner bar were most excellent! I also recieved great response. I was asked by a very enchanting and talented writer lady if I was going to stay... saying I ought to stay and get a job at the cacker barrel... oh if life were that easy...

gotta admidt that I'm a little torn, but as long as I keep playing as much as I can and continue to meet with people... I'm content in hoping it's a dues paying process, and It won't be long before stars align in the correct order to allow me to continue the work I'm meant to.

Rusty nail tonight... who knows what tomorrow will bring? not me, but If I'm granted another day, I'm accepting it with open arms, open heart, and open mind...

I am humbled, and I feel myself growing. love from music city!

woke up on sunday around 12:30... left rhinetown at 2:30 am got to nashville 20 minutes to five just in time for the 5 hour energy shakes to kick in... had a philly sandwich and some beer.. that calmed me down...
what an awesome scene... writers... lots of writers... a community... well..the host said I belong here....in nashville.... he said I'm a very good writer.... I'd like to sell a few songs and get some livin' money.... we'll see how that process works maybe tomorrow... it sure'd be nice to have someone big take a song of mine to the charts...we'll see...
thanks for all the support....I wouldn't be here without all you've given me... love from nashville... scott

I leave tomorrow for Nashville,tn. I will be playing at the Nashville Palace and at the rusty Nail for their writers nights. I'm also searching for gigs after the 4th of nov... so if you can help me out with a venue or house show, please drop me a line at scottkir@scottkirbymusic.com

B tapes vol 1 coming soon!

13 tracks of raw purified Blue-Country Folk Grass
????? What does that mean...hmmm
Well, it means I'm organizing the album art work... then it'll get pressed...
then will be ready to go on your shelf. or in your cd player... and then we'll all blog about it, I might even have an open forum about it, or a game show style debate... just some ideas for the shameless self promotion...

Working on the songs. 11 songs so far almost completed and moving in to the last day for this session.

I may be looking at working on a another cd in the near future since I have some more songs that I want to get on a cd. Update coming soon.

The last week of September/1st week of October, Scott will be tied up recording. He's very interested in booking gigs, but this week his direct response may be delayed or I may get back to you for quicker response.

He's looking forward to launching more original songs. November Snow, the song he performed at the Big Top Chautauqua will be on this CD. What a great experience that was! It will be great to have this song available soon for audiences to play at home since their response at live performances has been so good. Thanks for your support, it is greatly appreciated.

Booking, booking, booking! I am currently in the process of booking shows to help promote the release of my next album---The Basement Tapes, the complete tour will kick off beginning in the springtime of 2010
Look for me at a venue near you and help me get the album out from underground...basement....underground...oh how clever...
