================================
With a career that began as a teen prodigy with Michigan's Rationals in the '60s, Scott Morgan has been a long-term torchbearer for gritty, soulful hard rock and rhythm and blues.
Over the course of innumerable albums and shows with The Rationals, Sonics Rendezvous Band, The Scott Morgan Band, Dodge Main, Scots Pirates, Powertrane and the Hydromatics, the singer-guitarist has been hailed as an innovator in green-eyed soul and a true rocking original.
Based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, but equally busy in Europe, he's teaming with the leader of Sweden's Hellacopters, Nick Royale, as The Solution, to turn on a new generation to the sounds of Motown and Stax. AFTER European festival shows with The Solution (supporting The "Communicate!" album and its Swedish top five single "I Have to Quit You"), Scott keeps forging ahead. The solution has Just released their second studio album "The Solution Will Not Be Televised" in Sweden to critical acclaim and heavy sales. Scott is back from a promo trip to Stockholm, including the Swedish Morning Show (Nyhets Morgon) and Swedish National Radio.
His US band Powertrane has unleashed their first studio album of asphalt tough, road rock entitled "Beyond the Sound". Also out is a live album with Radio Birdman's Deniz Tek (culled from a tour of France and Italy) titled "3 Assassins", and a live in Michigan Powertrane album, "Ann Arbor Revival" with The Stooges' Ron Asheton, Radio Birdman’s Deniz Tek, and the Cult Heroes' Hiawatha.
Also out is a live vinyl EP from his second Euro band the Hydromatics who have recorded three studio releases to their credit. The Hydromatics recently unveiled their third studio album, "The Earth Is Shaking" for Suburban Records and went out on a one-month Western European tour.
In 2006, the Sonic's Rendezvous Band box set was released on Easy Action and became their top seller. This year you can look forward to a Rationals official release on Ace Records.
Scott continues storming stages from Ann Arbor to Europe, playing the good stuff like you thought nobody did anymore.
