Scrod Johnson creates shoegazey, psychedelic lo-fi music alone on an island in the Gulf of Mexico, with a sound undeniably shaped by his early '80s underground Philly roots. A founding member of The Spins (1978–1979) and Dog Beans (1980–1986), Scrod eventually walked away from the big-city lifestyle and the music business for a remote island with no cars, bridges, or mail delivery.

There, he married, raised a daughter, went to grad school, and taught creative writing at a local university. Now retired from professing, Scrod has returned full-time to his sonic explorations. His 14-song collection, the clear album, is available to stream and download on Ampwall. His new single, “Song for Betsie,” arrives everywhere on November 25.
