Scotty McRib - Signature Artist

"There's no matching the resilience of Scorpion Sticks. No one else comes close."

Initially starting on the trumpet, 5 minutes playing on a drum set was enough to convince the 12 year old Scotty McRib to make drums his main instrument. After spending time learning the classic rock tunes that his father constantly played on the radio, Scotty eventually formed a band in high school with his friends, dubbed HyperGyant. As his first real band experience, HyperGyant would play shows throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, instilling a drive in Scotty to keep getting better, and hone the skill of singing while playing drums. His band would end in 2013, and Scotty would transition to bass guitar for new projects, but kept practicing in anticipation of the right projects to come back to drums for. That door opened in 2016 with Suburban Paranoia, as the band needed a fill in drummer for a run of the American Southwest, after which Scotty would remain in the band until 2019. During the pandemic, he would join his friend Viking Mike in a jam room, starting the crossover thrash project Karmic Debt, where he would again play drums and sing. He is still playing with that project to this day as they work on their debut full length album. In the meanwhile, Scotty would join the group Almost Dead as a touring drummer in 2022, playing fests and tours with the group, including the european Unquestionable Blasphemy tour in 2024 with Atheist and Cryptopsy. Scotty always has his ear to the group for new opportunities, so there's a chance you'll be seeing him on a stage near you soon!
