Scott Pemberton O Theory with Ten Foot Tiger
Aug

Scott Pemberton O Theory with Ten Foot Tiger

Get ready to dance your socks off with Scott Pemberton O Theory’s infectious dance music. It’s funky, surfy, rock at its finest, and it’s propelled by Scott’s virtuosic guitar playing! Scott is an emerging force on the festival circuit, with his wild approach to the guitar and nimble funky band he is immediately recognizable and undeniably original. The mastery of his guitar playing combined with the fun recklessness of his songwriting show that the rules of songwriting and playing the guitar no longer exist for him.

Since it’s inception, Ten Foot Tiger has adapted and evolved into one of Sacramento’s most unique bands. With a sound beyond traditional categories, they’ve found themselves absorbed into the jam-band scene, although they stand well outside that label with their catchy indie-pop like tunes. They have poignant and provocative songs as well as powerful improvisations that stem from so many genres there’s “something for everyone” says frontman Dan Green. But it is unmistakable that their exhilarating live performances make Ten Foot Tiger a must see for any music lover.
