About Scott Binder

Scott has had a powerful and gifted life. He grew up just outside of Seattle WA, and ever since he was a boy he has had a strong fascination with drums and music. His love for music was introduced to him by his older brother who is a talented drummer and musician. Growing up Scott vowed that he would be a drummer in a rock and roll band and become a Major league baseball player.

 In January of 2000, he achieved the first part of his dream; he signed a professional baseball contract with the Springfield Capitals. Shortly after his baseball career began, it ended. Although this was a life long dream of Scott's, he felt fortunate to make it farther than most young men could ever dream of. Besides, he had other dreams......yet to unfold!

After his baseball pursuit was over, Scott decided it was time to embark on his passion and love for music. He has channeled his drive and energy into learning how to create electronic music. Scott went back to college in Minneapolis, and began taking sound engineering and production courses, and studying percussion. He also joined live bands. In 2005 Scott returned to Seattle and tried out for the world wide organization known as The Drum Caf?. The Drum Caf? is filled with some of the best African percussionists and Grammy Award winning players in the world and Scott was asked to perform with this talented group.

While still performing with The Drum Caf?, Scott knew it was time to branch out and create a one man show. This one man show allows him to showcase his Djing talents and simultaneously play African drums! Soon thereafter, Scott moved to San Francisco to catapult his talents onto the dance scene.

Scott's energy is contagious. With his move to San Francisco, he is quickly becoming one of the most popular acts to be booked at the best clubs in San Francisco and Seattle. He is also booked for events like The Love Parade and The Electronic Music conference. He is currently holding down residencies at the Bambuddha Lounge, S.F., 111 Minna, S.F., and Club Heaven, Seattle.

He has performed in Vancouver, BC, Seattle, Denver, Minneapolis, and San Francisco. Later this year, Scott is being flown to Asia for his first overseas tour, and is in the middle of putting together his first European tour.

While he has a busy schedule of performing, Scott is also in the middle of producing his first full length CD.
