SCOTT VARNEY is a modern day one man band. He has been described by fans as a “funky version of Jack Johnson.” He brings this sound together with his voice, six string bass guitar, drums, MPC, synth and various percussion instruments with one characteristic element of his live performance, “looping” his vocals and instruments to create a full band sound. Some of Scott’s favorite projects were being the bass player to the Gloucester based punk rock band Skurj as well as holding down the low end along side good friend Rachel Leyco in the Rachel Leyco Band. Today, Scott’s musical talents have grown and he’s refined his musical tastes into a singular but hard to define style that draws from a blend of  funk, jazz and even folk/world music.
