10
00:00:37,989 –> 00:00:40,449
start by giving the audience some
background about yourself

11
00:00:40,450 –> 00:00:45,640
sure well mama 33 grew up in Long Island
New York you know I live in Brooklyn now

12
00:00:45,640 –> 00:00:52,150
Scott engaged and I grew up a punk and I
mean that in the music sense punk rock

13
00:00:52,150 –> 00:00:56,50
and rock and roll classic rock all that
stuff

14
00:00:56,50 –> 00:00:59,979
yeah that’s that’s me so before we get
started more about your music career

15
00:00:59,979 –> 00:01:02,680
what would you say inspires you

16
00:01:02,680 –> 00:01:08,530
I’m inspired by many things uh my family
of course my dad is a musician you

17
00:01:08,530 –> 00:01:14,350
always been a musician he played in many
many bands and I don’t like he’s been an

18
00:01:14,350 –> 00:01:18,130
inspiration even though he hasn’t been
in my life all the time but besides that

19
00:01:18,130 –> 00:01:22,630
I also inspired by a lot of other things
i’m inspired by political musicians and

20
00:01:22,630 –> 00:01:27,880
you know a lot of Punk’s out there
people who are able to just go out and

21
00:01:27,880 –> 00:01:33,729
do their thing without any worries a lot
of kids kind of like 16 17 18 years old

22
00:01:33,729 –> 00:01:37,869
he just kind of got up and went on tour
got a big yellow school bus and went out

23
00:01:37,869 –> 00:01:41,439
there and you know although i was never
able to do something like that that’s

24
00:01:41,439 –> 00:01:45,699
you know to me is the ultimate DIY the
ultimate do-it-yourself attitude and

25
00:01:45,700 –> 00:01:47,140
that’s kind of where I come from

26
00:01:47,140 –> 00:01:52,119
so could you give me a couple bands that
you find inspiring recently there’s

27
00:01:52,119 –> 00:01:58,119
mischief brew folk band for pump and you
know they sing about squatters they sing

28
00:01:58,119 –> 00:02:03,579
about you know living on the streets and
such and although i haven’t really been

29
00:02:03,579 –> 00:02:08,169
in that world I’ve been around millions
and millions of people who lived in that

30
00:02:08,169 –> 00:02:12,790
world i used to hang out in the parks in
New York City and and that type of music

31
00:02:12,790 –> 00:02:16,810
really speaks to me on the political
punk rock and such if you go back to old

32
00:02:16,810 –> 00:02:23,350
bands fans like crass from the eighties
bands like that they just gave it their

33
00:02:23,350 –> 00:02:28,569
all they talk about things that most
people might find offensive but it’s you

34
00:02:28,569 –> 00:02:29,890
know it’s the truth

35
00:02:29,890 –> 00:02:32,920
they spoke it and they got in trouble
something from from the English

36
00:02:32,920 –> 00:02:34,950
government such but a

37
00:02:34,950 –> 00:02:39,810
shoulda mentioned there from the UK but
i’m sure that you got that from that be

38
00:02:39,810 –> 00:02:44,670
a crass mischief brew these are these
are bands that really like inspired me

39
00:02:44,670 –> 00:02:49,530
to play the music I play but then
there’s also like Woody Guthrie and Bob

40
00:02:49,530 –> 00:02:53,790
Dylan people who play like more focused
stuff and and a lot of that speaks to me

41
00:02:53,790 –> 00:02:58,109
because it’s where i got my ideology
from really besides you of course family

42
00:02:58,110 –> 00:03:02,190
and such how did your dream of a musical
career come about well as I spoke a

43
00:03:02,190 –> 00:03:06,930
little bit about before my dad was a
musician and although i didn’t really

44
00:03:06,930 –> 00:03:12,60
grow up with him he you know I get to my
blood and I knew what he did and I know

45
00:03:12,60 –> 00:03:16,920
I knew that you know that he was playing
in bands playing bass like Aerosmith and

46
00:03:16,920 –> 00:03:22,589
Billy Squier and you know a lot of
that’s just kinda in my soul

47
00:03:22,590 –> 00:03:27,269
besides that of course I’m gonna grow up
my mom my mom listen to classic rock

48
00:03:27,269 –> 00:03:30,599
constantly that was like a thing that
and and folk which as you can see i got

49
00:03:30,599 –> 00:03:34,798
from that the chi remember the car my
mom used to always play like the Beatles

50
00:03:34,799 –> 00:03:38,250
White Album over and over again kind of
know all those songs by heart now

51
00:03:38,250 –> 00:03:43,829
because of it but that really inspired
me in terms of music because you know I

52
00:03:43,829 –> 00:03:48,90
didn’t really listen to like rafi or you
know anything like that growing up I

53
00:03:48,90 –> 00:03:51,389
listened to the I didn’t like fraggle
rock and sesame street and those were

54
00:03:51,389 –> 00:03:55,829
like music-oriented shows i mean they
were learning programs and suchlike

55
00:03:55,829 –> 00:04:01,769
Fraggle Rock especially it Jim Henson’s
like views on life really really did

56
00:04:01,769 –> 00:04:05,970
inspire me to start writing music and I
know it sounds odd but I give you listen

57
00:04:05,970 –> 00:04:11,10
to some of the songs they really have
messages that i kinda incorporating some

58
00:04:11,10 –> 00:04:15,929
of my punk rock and some of my acoustic
rock so yeah I mean family obviously and

59
00:04:15,930 –> 00:04:18,90
just just my surroundings

60
00:04:18,89 –> 00:04:25,739
I ended up picking up a guitar when I
was i want to say 1415 is to write music

61
00:04:25,740 –> 00:04:29,580
before that when I was in elementary
school the time I mean I found lyrics as

62
00:04:29,580 –> 00:04:33,870
i was when i was moving recently that I
written when I was had to have been like

63
00:04:33,870 –> 00:04:37,800
eight or nine years old and basically
started what else was in that book and

64
00:04:37,800 –> 00:04:41,430
so I’ve always been writing stuff and I
remember I i picked up the guitar when I

65
00:04:41,430 –> 00:04:45,210
was like 14 years old my mom sent me to
a music school

66
00:04:46,80 –> 00:04:50,39
it really is i had like three or four
lessons before I kind of figured it out

67
00:04:50,39 –> 00:04:54,479
on my own and just started you know
basically doing it myself which is kind

68
00:04:54,479 –> 00:04:58,500
of how I live my life now I kind of the
whole do-it-yourself attitude of of

69
00:04:58,500 –> 00:05:00,780
music that’s all i got started

70
00:05:00,780 –> 00:05:05,609
how did your family respond to you
wanting to become a musician weather is

71
00:05:05,610 –> 00:05:12,509
for career or well my mom was always
very supportive of what i did my grandma

72
00:05:12,509 –> 00:05:16,740
maybe not so much but yeah that she
comes from the old school where gotta

73
00:05:16,740 –> 00:05:19,740
make sure that you know you you have a
paycheck and such

74
00:05:19,740 –> 00:05:22,889
my mom is supportive but she always
wanted me to go to college which I did

75
00:05:22,889 –> 00:05:28,169
you know and I got my degree in another
art which I’m sure she was happy about

76
00:05:28,169 –> 00:05:32,520
another thing that’s very hard to get
into the film industry but i’d like to

77
00:05:32,520 –> 00:05:36,90
get into that right now but yeah I mean
in general she’s always you know always

78
00:05:36,90 –> 00:05:41,219
pushed me to do what I want to do as
long as I was able to support myself as

79
00:05:41,219 –> 00:05:46,20
well the good thing about her and you
know most of my family at lisa’s they’re

80
00:05:46,20 –> 00:05:50,729
good at the whole constructive criticism
thing meaning they don’t just give me

81
00:05:50,729 –> 00:05:54,508
congratulate oreo that was great that
was amazing you know which some people

82
00:05:54,509 –> 00:05:59,699
in my life do they told me when
something stung if it stunk you know

83
00:05:59,699 –> 00:06:03,569
that you know change that change that
and you know my family is really really

84
00:06:03,569 –> 00:06:07,830
cool like that so yeah they never really
had anything from my dad never really

85
00:06:07,830 –> 00:06:12,539
you know you didn’t mention one way or
another you know he wasn’t like oh yeah

86
00:06:12,539 –> 00:06:16,800
I showed him videos they showed music
that I’ve done and he was like you know

87
00:06:16,800 –> 00:06:21,479
that’s great you know and everything but
he never really you know supported me or

88
00:06:21,479 –> 00:06:25,979
didn’t support me in either respect kind
I think he kinda just wants me to do

89
00:06:25,979 –> 00:06:30,690
everything you know on my own he doesn’t
want to get into my my head and he

90
00:06:30,690 –> 00:06:34,770
doesn’t want me to just do what he did I
mean he doesn’t really work a lot these

91
00:06:34,770 –> 00:06:39,568
days which is not a bad thing he’s doing
what he’s doing in terms of in the music

92
00:06:39,569 –> 00:06:45,300
world is is he doesn’t want me to end up
poor which he was for a while not

93
00:06:45,300 –> 00:06:49,589
anymore but you know it’s it’s it’s a
hard thing and I get that you know

94
00:06:49,589 –> 00:06:54,29
supportive but you know very cautious on
both of their parts so what steps did

95
00:06:54,29 –> 00:06:56,39
you take to get started with music

96
00:06:56,39 –> 00:06:58,560
well I mean I was always a vocalist uh

97
00:06:58,560 –> 00:07:03,870
or try to be i was in course for every
year of middle school high school love

98
00:07:03,870 –> 00:07:09,30
to sing but of course you can’t just get
along being a vocalist when you know all

99
00:07:09,30 –> 00:07:09,840
the time

100
00:07:09,840 –> 00:07:12,270
I mean obviously you have been to
support you of course you can but you

101
00:07:12,270 –> 00:07:15,840
want to write songs you gotta pick up an
instrument so I I mean I play the piano

102
00:07:15,840 –> 00:07:19,200
a little bit when I was kid but never
really got into it until later on in

103
00:07:19,200 –> 00:07:24,240
life right now I I mean rather i started
playing guitar and then eventually bass

104
00:07:24,240 –> 00:07:30,000
guitar you know it’s funny because you
kinda gotta . have to start doing stuff

105
00:07:30,000 –> 00:07:35,880
and I recorded on cassette tapes when I
was a kid are constantly i started a

106
00:07:35,880 –> 00:07:40,409
band called tough guys in pajamas and we
ended up using back-to-back tape

107
00:07:40,410 –> 00:07:47,310
recording so you put a tape in in the
first cassette slot i guess and then you

108
00:07:47,310 –> 00:07:53,130
record all of the guitar parts or or
rather you do the drums first and then

109
00:07:53,130 –> 00:07:58,710
you put the tape into the second slot
you record onto another tape the base

110
00:07:58,710 –> 00:08:03,570
and the guitar and vocals etc etc etc
which is a very tedious task but it’s

111
00:08:03,570 –> 00:08:06,900
kind of how we had to do things back
then unless we want to do you know if we

112
00:08:06,900 –> 00:08:11,310
wanted to get a quote on quote studio
recording eventually I got myself a

113
00:08:11,310 –> 00:08:14,669
multitrack recorder and that’s how I
kind of started doing a lot of my stuff

114
00:08:14,669 –> 00:08:19,200
now my solo work and my street army
gospel stuff which is the band that i’m

115
00:08:19,200 –> 00:08:23,640
working on with right now she’s really
at this point just me doing all the

116
00:08:23,640 –> 00:08:24,900
instruments

117
00:08:24,900 –> 00:08:28,260
I never learned how to play drums but a
lot of the time you’ll hear drum

118
00:08:28,260 –> 00:08:32,309
machines and some of my music and that’s
you know that’s kind of a staple of what

119
00:08:32,309 –> 00:08:36,000
i do because i can’t play it and it’s
very loud especially in New York when

120
00:08:36,000 –> 00:08:40,110
you have somebody living next door you
constantly yeah you can’t really be

121
00:08:40,110 –> 00:08:44,280
playing drums so since i can’t afford
studio time or anything like that I feel

122
00:08:44,280 –> 00:08:46,50
like this is the best option

123
00:08:46,50 –> 00:08:50,40
yeah i mean that’s in terms of getting
started you need the guitar I got the

124
00:08:50,40 –> 00:08:53,939
guitar and the bass i got the base i
need the recorder i got the recorder and

125
00:08:53,940 –> 00:08:58,110
and at that point it’s all it’s all on
you you know what I mean yeah yeah

126
00:08:58,110 –> 00:09:02,640
definitely the drum machines of today or
are much more complicated than they were

127
00:09:02,640 –> 00:09:07,350
15 years ago not necessarily complicated
in a more difficult sense but they can

128
00:09:07,350 –> 00:09:10,830
be more natural sounding it’s true i
mean i have an sr 18

129
00:09:11,340 –> 00:09:15,600
police right now and that’s what kind of
what i’ve been using for some of my more

130
00:09:15,600 –> 00:09:21,330
recent projects i started with um
remember that the the the name and i was

131
00:09:21,330 –> 00:09:25,260
a boss but it was it sound i mean when i
go back and listen to some of the top

132
00:09:25,260 –> 00:09:29,400
guys in pajamas stuff it sounds
ridiculously fake and i know i was going

133
00:09:29,400 –> 00:09:33,810
for a realtor sound and the time it just
seemed like it was it was amazing but

134
00:09:33,810 –> 00:09:38,790
going back and listening to it now is
kind of hysterical so was there any

135
00:09:38,790 –> 00:09:42,750
roadblocks that you hit along the way I
mean everything is really a road kissing

136
00:09:42,750 –> 00:09:43,230
it

137
00:09:43,230 –> 00:09:48,450
money is obviously number one you know I
always kinda liked had that idea of all

138
00:09:48,450 –> 00:09:51,930
I’d rather live on the streets as long
as I was able to play my music which

139
00:09:51,930 –> 00:09:58,560
it’s now thinking about it sounds
ridiculous but I you know you gotta have

140
00:09:58,560 –> 00:10:03,390
an apartment you gotta have you know
food on your table and such so obviously

141
00:10:03,390 –> 00:10:10,199
that’s a roadblock so it’s kind of hard
to really focus on a band or you know in

142
00:10:10,200 –> 00:10:18,120
mind that as a sole means of income
people do it people get lucky I kind of

143
00:10:18,120 –> 00:10:23,160
didn’t take that risk which you know it
happens but I’ve been making music and

144
00:10:23,160 –> 00:10:26,850
it’s it sounds great to me and and
that’s that’s all I really care about

145
00:10:27,600 –> 00:10:31,980
also you know it’s nowadays with like
the internet and everything it’s really

146
00:10:31,980 –> 00:10:35,40
hard to find someone who’s not already
involved in other projects

147
00:10:35,610 –> 00:10:38,790
everyone seems to be able to you know
back in the day you kind of had to go

148
00:10:38,790 –> 00:10:43,890
and all your friends have got a band i
have a band 20 cool you know i need a

149
00:10:43,890 –> 00:10:47,69
vocalist and that’s how it worked now
it’s just like everyone goes on

150
00:10:47,70 –> 00:10:50,880
craigslist or whatever and so everyone
already has there been filled up but ok

151
00:10:50,880 –> 00:10:56,730
so it’s kind of hard to like you know
get a project going and retains retain

152
00:10:56,730 –> 00:11:00,510
creative control which is kind of what I
need in my life

153
00:11:01,380 –> 00:11:06,60
those are some roadblocks really but for
the most part I you know I i do what i

154
00:11:06,60 –> 00:11:10,109
love i do what i want to do in a way and
i like that so as much as it’s hard to

155
00:11:10,110 –> 00:11:14,250
find other people and such i’m kinda
happy with what I’m doing because now i

156
00:11:14,250 –> 00:11:19,320
know i have one percent control over it
i overcame the the the money situation

157
00:11:19,320 –> 00:11:24,360
by just doing you know by the DIY which
I explained earlier so I mean like it i

158
00:11:24,360 –> 00:11:24,930
do I

159
00:11:24,930 –> 00:11:29,520
I do everything on my own now and that’s
that’s kind of my way of not really

160
00:11:29,520 –> 00:11:34,290
overcoming the roadblocks but avoiding
them avoid the roadblocks by working you

161
00:11:34,290 –> 00:11:37,349
know my own and that doesn’t that
doesn’t mean i’m against collaboration i

162
00:11:37,350 –> 00:11:41,730
love it and the chance has to come my
way and once it does I’m you know I jump

163
00:11:41,730 –> 00:11:47,550
at it i used to i worked i was in a
cover band punk 77 for a little over a

164
00:11:47,550 –> 00:11:51,540
year they’re still going strong i just
didn’t work out the end but like you

165
00:11:51,540 –> 00:11:55,709
know I i love working with people just
sometimes doesn’t work out that way so

166
00:11:55,709 –> 00:11:58,770
has there been any part of your dream
that haven’t quite worked out well I

167
00:11:58,770 –> 00:12:02,790
mean the real dream would obviously be
to make a living off my music that would

168
00:12:02,790 –> 00:12:04,170
be phenomenal

169
00:12:04,170 –> 00:12:07,620
it’s tough it’s hard you know it’s
expensive to live in New York and not

170
00:12:07,620 –> 00:12:11,970
having a full-time job you know and
relying on your music so Lee’s is kinda

171
00:12:11,970 –> 00:12:13,380
like a suicide mission

172
00:12:13,380 –> 00:12:19,380
so I mean that’s obviously v dream but
in terms of like you know what I wanted

173
00:12:19,380 –> 00:12:23,339
I’m happy with with my music I i love
the way it comes out i love the way

174
00:12:23,339 –> 00:12:26,640
works in fact every time I can’t afford
a new piece of equipment i’m still gonna

175
00:12:26,640 –> 00:12:27,990
get it i’m still gonna work on it

176
00:12:27,990 –> 00:12:32,220
um the solo stuff is really working out
great it’s kind of like more like an

177
00:12:32,220 –> 00:12:36,450
acoustic like a folk punk like we were
discussing about mr. Bruin and it’s like

178
00:12:36,450 –> 00:12:41,190
a folk punk type thing and I kind of
like that i’m gonna start doing like

179
00:12:41,190 –> 00:12:45,570
open mics and such now that I’m here in
the city before living in Long Island

180
00:12:45,570 –> 00:12:50,370
was kind of tough to come out here and
perform when you know I’m not into the

181
00:12:50,370 –> 00:12:55,529
lousy anymore it’s not it’s hard to get
around I don’t have a car as I I great i

182
00:12:55,529 –> 00:12:59,850
I you know I grew up there I came right
out here so you know i mean i’m gonna

183
00:12:59,850 –> 00:13:03,779
start doing open mics in it it’s it’s
gonna be great and hopefully i’ll be

184
00:13:03,779 –> 00:13:06,779
doing this until day you know I’m out of
here

185
00:13:07,500 –> 00:13:12,60
I just I just wanna I just wanna play
music and it’s not about it’s not about

186
00:13:12,60 –> 00:13:15,930
selling it it’s not about you know
making millions of dollars to me it’s

187
00:13:15,930 –> 00:13:20,880
about making art and and having other
people enjoy it and you know that’s come

188
00:13:20,880 –> 00:13:24,899
true and that you know that to me is is
the ultimate goal so if you were

189
00:13:24,899 –> 00:13:28,649
stranded on a desert on with your family
what three things would you not be able

190
00:13:28,649 –> 00:13:32,490
to live without em well clearly my
guitar would be one of them

191
00:13:33,510 –> 00:13:38,460
I I don’t think I’d be able to deal with
it although you know what’s the story

192
00:13:38,460 –> 00:13:45,120
his pop if I don’t have strings so if i
could so the guitar unlimited strings I

193
00:13:45,120 –> 00:13:48,150
feel like Steve Martin that a saturday
night live clip

194
00:13:48,150 –> 00:13:55,380
uh-huh better and you know i would say
if i could and if I electricity

195
00:13:55,380 –> 00:14:00,60
permitted on my video camera because i
like documenting every everything that

196
00:14:00,60 –> 00:14:06,270
goes on and if I can’t have some sort of
audio no audio recollection I rather I

197
00:14:06,270 –> 00:14:11,130
could have some audio recollection of it
but you know video I love being able to

198
00:14:11,130 –> 00:14:15,90
go back and watch stuff and you know of
course on a deserted island probably

199
00:14:15,90 –> 00:14:18,120
wouldn’t have a TV to watch it on or
anything you know in this fantasy world

200
00:14:18,120 –> 00:14:21,210
that’s what it would be if it so do you
have any dreams for the future

201
00:14:21,750 –> 00:14:26,340
absolutely i mean i want to continue
working on things are as i said i wanted

202
00:14:26,340 –> 00:14:32,280
to i really wanna make a living off of
my music i really i really wanna be able

203
00:14:32,280 –> 00:14:39,60
to just you know provide for my eventual
real family you know kids and such with

204
00:14:39,60 –> 00:14:43,890
the meat money from from my music and it
would be that would be beyond all just a

205
00:14:43,890 –> 00:14:49,290
super dream with ultra dream but you
know in terms of what’s going on right

206
00:14:49,290 –> 00:14:54,240
now I’m in the middle of recording or
recording an album I did ten years ago

207
00:14:54,240 –> 00:14:57,840
and it’s good it’s the way I really
wanted to be originally I didn’t have

208
00:14:57,840 –> 00:15:01,680
enough time to complete it and I don’t
even know how i had a deadline when

209
00:15:01,680 –> 00:15:06,239
doing everything myself but I did
apparently because I released it for

210
00:15:06,240 –> 00:15:10,950
some reason with only 12 songs and
they’re really 19 on there and i’m

211
00:15:10,950 –> 00:15:15,720
releasing it the way I wanted it to be
with the bandwidth full vocals plus

212
00:15:15,720 –> 00:15:19,620
banjo and everything’s gonna be going
crazy i’m also working on a couple other

213
00:15:19,620 –> 00:15:24,840
new things as well and you can find them
eventually on Jerry skills . bandcamp

218
00:15:40,650 –> 00:15:46,350
don’t overcharge for music like some
venues do so you know it’s just you know

219
00:15:46,350 –> 00:15:49,560
I i really mean to me

220
00:15:49,560 –> 00:15:51,339
obviously I want to make money on my
music

221
00:15:51,340 –> 00:15:56,620
but i don’t really i want people to hear
it that’s my main concern so yeah the

so you know okay well thank you and it’s
looking great from what I’ve seen so far

233
00:16:44,710 –> 00:16:49,240
yeah it couldn’t be amazing without the
music so you know that you you really

234
00:16:49,240 –> 00:16:53,380
did a lot of work on it and I could tell
and i hope to recreate you know the

235
00:16:53,380 –> 00:16:57,670
amount of work you didn’t mind so you
know what you will see but you know

236

push that forward it looks really really

237
00:17:01,960 –> 00:17:05,709
good for now from what i can tell so so
do you have any last thoughts to share

238
00:17:05,709 –> 00:17:11,260
yes you’ll have the only person who can
stop your dreams from coming true is you

239
00:17:11,260 –> 00:17:16,660
and that’s absolute truth you know again
do it yourself a you know whether you

240
00:17:16,660 –> 00:17:21,580
want to make movies or create music or
act or whatever with all these like

241
00:17:21,579 –> 00:17:25,689
programs they have now to create your
you know your own art and websites to

242
00:17:25,690 –> 00:17:29,680
promote yourself you know you have no
excuse not to you really don’t mean you

243
00:17:29,680 –> 00:17:33,970
don’t need a billion-dollar studio
backing or a major record label you know

244
00:17:33,970 –> 00:17:35,950
the tools are right there so use them

245
00:17:35,950 –> 00:17:40,990
youtube bandcamp soundcloud facebook
twitter blip vimeo I’m not gonna keep

246
00:17:40,990 –> 00:17:44,290
listening random websites but all those
things you know you can do everything

247
00:17:44,290 –> 00:17:48,129
yourself nowadays and you can’t keep
telling yourself I can’t make it because

248
00:17:48,130 –> 00:17:52,630
you will you really will all you gotta
do is a as clichéd this is believe in

249
00:17:52,630 –> 00:17:57,100
yourself and be you know you gotta do it
just do it go out there get something

250
00:17:57,100 –> 00:18:00,219
cheap and understand money is a factor
but you can easily get a lot of free

251
00:18:00,220 –> 00:18:04,850
programs online and you can get cheap
things are in the stores used on ebay

252
00:18:04,850 –> 00:18:10,159
such get some recording equipment and
just record or or get a camera and film

253
00:18:10,160 –> 00:18:13,970
something or you know whatever your art
is just follow the dream because if

254
00:18:13,970 –> 00:18:18,80
anything even if it’s not going to make
money you yourself are going to be happy

255
00:18:18,80 –> 00:18:21,439
that you did it and that’s all really
really matters in the end I couldn’t

256
