Through A Stained Glass Eye

Musician, singer, songwriter Scott Damgaard releases his forth studio album entitled 'Through a Stained Glass Eye.' Bassist Dave Lieb, guitarist Bilgehan Tuncer and drummer Frank DeFreitas joined Scott for this high octane recording. Highlights from the new CD 'Through a Stained Glass Eye' include 'She's Letting Go,' an infectious Beatlesque pop song, 'Circus Is In Town' with it's rollicking piano and 'Waterfall,' a gentle peaceful song about getting away from it all. On 'Prince 4 A Day,' this bass-driven track explores what it be be like to walk in the shoes of the musician Prince. It's about as funky as it gets. And the bluesy 'Goin' To Alabama' feels just like an encore where the band leaves it all on the stage. Originally from Milwaukee Wisconsin, Scott's influences are The Beatles (John Lennon), The Grateful Dead (Jerry Garcia), and William Topley, to name a few. Not unlike the early careers of Tracy Chapman, Martin Sexton and Mary Lou Lord, Damgaard started his career playing in the Harvard Square and Boston subway system and for the last twenty years has been hard at work playing bars and clubs in and around the Boston area and all of New England. Steve Morse from The Boston Globe has said 'Scott is the most under-rated musician in Boston.' His music is contagious. I dare you not to have a good time. 'Through a Stained Glass Eye' was produced and recorded by Bill Ryan at RMI Studio in Sturbridge, MA. Bill also happens to be the sound engineer for the band Boston, so you can be sure this album rocks! His masterful touches can be heard throughout the album, including inter-galatic sounds and an ender with a nod to 33 1/3 vinyl records. This past November Scott not only opened for British rocker William Topley, but he and his band also filled in as Topley's backing band. Turns out Topley's band mates had had visa problems, so Scott and his band were thrilled to be performing with one of their heros. Topley was so impressed with their performance he's been speaking with Scott about the possibility of additional US Tour Dates.
