Scooter Muse

Scooter has his roots in Bluegrass Music and has been privileged to win ten State of Alabama & Tennessee Valley Championship titles for 5 String and Old Time Banjo and began to tap into the incredible world of Celtic Music almost 30 years ago. After learning a flood of traditional jigs and reels on the banjo he began to explore the Celtic domain of open tunings for the guitar and from 1994 till 2002 was founder and leader of one of the country's finest Celtic bands, The Full Moon Ensemble, touring the US, Canada and Scotland.

After the FME went their seperate ways in December of 2002, Scooter was proud to join Henri's Notions (www.henrisnotions.com) after being a big fan of the band for many years!

He has released his first solo guitar CD, "Saddell Abbey" featuring 14 tracks of music. The CD includes 12 original compositions for acoustic guitar including music set to the poetry of Robert Burns, and 3 songs by the Full Moon Ensemble's Allison King and Jil Chambless of Henri's Notions. Saddell Abbey is available through Henri's Notions Website and CD Baby.

In between gigs with the Notions, Scooter handles all the 5 string banjo work for the Muscle Shoals recording industry as well as hitting a few bluegrass festivals and competitions (Main banjos are a very rare 1966 ODE Style E and also a great banjo built by Kenny Cardin from Indiana - you can check out my page at www.banjohangout.org to get a look at them if you are interested - my home page is at SCTRMS)---
