Robert Scott

Singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and visual artist Robert Scott has been a staple in the New Zealand alternative rock scene since the 1980s, holding down bass, guitar, and songwriting duties for jangle pop legends the Clean and later the Bats. In the '90s he led the folk-pop outfit Magick Heads and contributed both music and cover art for a host of other regional acts. He released his debut, largely instrumental solo album, The Creeping Unknown, in 2001 on the Flying Nun label, followed a decade later by the more pop-oriented Ends Run Together (2011). He managed a third album only a few years later with 2014's The Green House, another collection of shambling and soft-spoken indie rockers. ~ James Christopher Monger, Rovi
