GIMME SHELTER: SCOUTER
The boys of Scouter clearly spent their high school careers doing three things: playing guitar (naturally), playing video games (definitely) and getting laid more than Slave Leia at Comic-Con (maybe). Continue reading

Currently touring along side musical collaborator, Adam Papagan, and free of Adult Swim affiliation, his following lies somewhere along the lines of cult and novelty. Continue reading
