| HOW IT BEGAN... Once upon a time, guitarist SCOTT SAWYER envisioned a new band, to interpret his music and his arrangements of other people's music...an "electric power trio" with a healthy respect for "space" (the silence between notes)... One fine day, he heard the album "Righteous" by a band called “DAG”... The groove got his attention and even though he had known DAG members Bobby Patterson (bass) & Kenny Soule (drums) for awhile, he had yet to play with them both at the same time... After a pickup gig in Raleigh (NC), they rehearsed and booked a real gig for April 15th, 1999 (which inspired Scott to re-do George Harrison's "Taxman")...they named the band GO THERE, it was fun so they decided to do it again. Eventually other priorities and life got in the way...GO THERE disbanded in December 2004. In November 2006, Sawyer returned to the studio to record an "electric" album. He enlisted musicians Kenny Soule, Kofi Burbridge, Oteil Burbridge and Ron Brendle. The result: “SCOTT SAWYER-GO THERE”. With GO THERE resurrected, Scott Sawyer continues to push the envelope. A melting pot of musical influences, GO THERE is all about communication, groove and taking chances. |
