The Everyday
“Over the past few years, I’ve built up an Instagram channel where I’ve cultivated as a display of the everyday. Around this time, a solo guitar project/act I began to rehearse for emerged; based on the idea of me, playing live and doing so with a musical set that I could perform entirely solo if I wished, playing electro-acoustic and post-rock, with avant-garde jazz-classical overtones, and performed live with the aid of simple looper pedals.
‘Ffolk’ is thus one such invented sub-genre, part folktronica, the ‘Forest’ of Folk emphasizing 12 string, shimmering guitar textures, post-rock or loops-based non-songs (with the occasional song) and other instrumental works produced during the course of a typical work day.”
– Eric Scott

" class="themify_lightbox" >Eric Scott :: The Everyday – Photo Book [Day 093]
Over time, I’ve built up an Instagram channel as my celebration of the everyday.

Let’s face it, I’m not really a #nofilters kind of guy; I’ve always needed […]

Eric Scott :: Inner Radio [Day 092]
The inner musical soup of Eric Scott begins as a swirling repetitive haze of musical, nearly ‘hauntological’ melodies at times.

CD | Download The brooding “Waterfalls” (Day 016) is an odd diversion from a mostly instrumental legacy, but Eric Scott puts the record straight: “I’ve always been attracted to dark songs.
