**Scott Hirsch** **with Zivi and Piñata Drama** Scott Hirsch is no stranger to deep music productions. Along his path, he fell in love with life on the road and musical community during the halcyon days of Southern California hardcore punk in the Ebullition records band Ex-Ignota. He was in the bloom of a 2000’s California cosmic country scene with musical compatriot MC Taylor in The Court & Spark, a gem of a band from pre-tech San Francisco. From there, the two of them founded Hiss Golden Messenger, where they explored the heaviness of rhythm and song together on the East Coast. In 2015, Scott returned to California to write his own music, produce records, and raise a family. Aside from continuing to produce more Hiss Golden Messenger records, Scott’s production work grew- The Grammy nominated Follow the Music, by Alice Gerrard, William Tyler’s First Cow Soundtrack, Mia Dyson’s Aria winning LP Tender Heart, and Hayden Pedigo’s forthcoming I’ll be Waving As you Drive Away are but a few of the records he produced. Scott’s own music also flourished during this time. With the release of the heady Blue Rider Songs, he crafted a musical identity that Aquarium Drunkard dubbed “JJ Cale on cough syrup.” MC Taylor writes, “I think of \[Hirsch’s follow up\] Lost Time Behind the Moon as Scott's masterpiece, because everything I know about him is in these songs, the groove and the wonder.” In 2020 Hirsch released Windless Day, which was given 4 stars by Mojo’s John Mulvey, who calls it “his most satisfying album yet.” **Doors at 7:00, show at 8:00** **$15 adv/dos + fees** Presented by Skylark Lounge.
