Performing over 1150 shows in 7 and a half years, Scott Allan Knost has been busy making his mark. Playing in bars, coffee houses and auditoriums through 29 states and 3 countries, he’s been bringing new fans in to the fold with his brand of percussive, acoustic rock.

Based in Wichita, Kansas, SAK has been playing in various groups most of his life, some gaining radio play and touring throughout the midwest. In 2005, he began going to open mics and singing some of his original songs, written quietly in hotel rooms.

Gaining some attention, he then decided to fulfill a lifelong dream and started his professional solo career in March 2007, living solely on income generated from honorariums, royalties and merchandise.

Incorporating looping, delay, and swirling harmonies built in real time, Knost presents catchy tunes, clever lyrics and masterful performance that will have you convinced that there’s an entire band on stage.

He has shared the stage with Martin Sexton, Uncle Kracker, Rehab, Casey Donahew, Andy Griggs, L.A. Guns, Faster Pussycat, Britny Fox, Jackson Taylor & The Sinners, Mike McClure, Sunny Ledfurd, Truckstop Honeymoon, John Berry & Buddy Jewell.

A person in attendance at a SAK show can expect to find an intimate and engaging performance of original work with choice interpretations of Cyndi Lauper, John Mayer, MGMT and Prince, to name a few.

Scott proudly uses: Clayton USA guitar picks and Recording King guitars.

SAK has just released his latest acoustic EP, “This Is A Movement”. Two full production EPs engineered by Micajah Ryan (Colin Hay, Guns N’ Roses) will follow later in 2013, coupled with a publishing deal with Naughty Dog Publishing. He’s also preparing for his 2nd tour of Southeast Asia. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
