Welcome Strangers
Longtime friends and musical collaborators Scott Goodwin (Drums/Vocals – Flowmotion, The True Spokes, Beecraft, Andy Coe Band, Your Sweet Action) and Jamie Zyskowski (Guitar/Vocals – Beecraft, The Don Goodwin Group) re-united in 2014 to create a new sound from a vintage pallet – Guitar, Bass, Drums, and lots of vocal harmonies. After a year of crafting new originals and inspiring covers from John Lennon, Sandy Denny, Genesis, The Beatles, Bob Dylan, and more, Scott invited his band mate Norman Baker (Bass/Guitar/Vocals – Norman Baker & The Backroads, Dub Lounge International, Vicci Martinez) to join on bass and vocals to complete the sound. The trio brings a unique mix of creative originals and passionate covers delivered through a stripped down yet surprisingly deep sound.
