Super XX Man
"X" CD
Hush Records
HSH 060

It takes a special person to work as a music therapist at The Oregon State Hospital maximum security wing (as seen in "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest"). By day, Scott Garred works with the cast-offs from society, by night he is Super XX Man, leading a band of merrymakers in Portland, OR, through his gentle, musical journey that, with this release, has been strolling along steadily for a decade.

"X" is named for the Roman numeral designations given to each of Garred's recordings to date. This tenth recording is a milepost for Super XX Man -- an album which takes stock in the decade-long legacy of Scott's songs by breathing new life into their arrangements with the polishing strength of his new band.

Built on simple melodies, these songs have classic appeal. Couched in major chord harmonies, the lyrics have an optimistic halo, beckoning the listener to sing along. In so doing, one will sing narratives of life and love that, while not shying away of spirituality, illuminate the dilemma of being human.

"Garred seems to channel Leonard Cohen, singing with deadpan mystery and grave tone. Garred's voice often recalls the nimble reediness of Willie Nelson." -- The Oregonian, February 27, 2004

Release Date: April 3, 2006
