Scott Krokoff hasn’t given up on his dream.

He hopes to inspire you to not give up on yours.

By day a lawyer, by all-the-other-time a singer/songwriter, Scott’s style of music is reminiscent of the classic folk rock of the 1960s and ’70s.

An acoustic based songcrafter, his tunes are melody driven; incorporating finger picking styles of greats such as James Taylor and Lindsay Buckingham with the country and roots vibes of Tom Petty and Neil Young.

Realizations and Declarations is a winner! Definitely one worth repeating.

Opening up with ‘What The Hell‘, we are welcomed into Scott’s world of self-realization as we climb out of our mundane lives and strive to dream big and go far. Work hard, play harder.

From his bio:

“Don’t,” one of 4 new tracks off the EP, was played during the 3rd annual NY Yankees Hope Week segment on NBC’s The Today Show in July 2011.

“Don’t” is probably one of my favorite jams…at least for now. This is an upbeat, make you get up and move around track.

That’s not the first time the segment has used Mr. Krokoff’s music. They used his song “A Better Life” back in 2010.

This EP is the first in a series which will lead up to the release of Scott’s first full length album.

Based in NYC, Scott has played at venues such as Rockwood Music Hall, The Bitter End, Caffe Vivaldi, Bar 4, The Living Room/Googie’s Lounge, LIC Bar, The National Underground, Pianos, Bar East and 169 Bar which have allowed him to cultivate his local fan base.

He also started reaching out to take his sound elsewhere. Great, because this is music people should hear.

One of those places includes Nashville circa Hotel Indigo and Debi Champion’s Writers Night at the Commodore Grille. He also played Bluebird Cafe’s Singer-Songwriter Tent at the 1st annual Country Throwdown in May 2010.
