Indianapolis In-Tune|Show #038: Scooter Hanes Episode
This is another one of those shows that has been in the works for what
seems like an eternity. I've been friends Scooter Hanes for a few
years now, but it has taken all that time for the stars to align such
that the timing is right to have him on the show. Fortunately, with
his demo completed and work begun a full-length CD, this has become the
opportune time to give him a little promotion.
Scooter
has made a name for himself on the east coast with various musical
projects and a CD with his former musical partner Paul "Pabo" Dake
released through Zigmo Records -- good luck finding a copy. Here in
Indiana he has been very successful playing such venues as the Whammy
Bar, the Rathskellar, and recurring gigs at a couple of notable chain
restaurants here in town. Contrary to rumor, he is not the guy in the
freecreditreport.com commercials.
Recently, however, he has put
his efforts into his own music as the primary
singer/songwriter/guitarist in the Scooter Hanes Band, and
inexplicably, is actively looking to trade steady, high-paying,
corporate gigs for the smaller audiences of the less-stable,
less-appreciated, all-original music scene. For that, we salute and
support him.
