It’s been a while since I’ve made any sort of posts on social media. I just want to be honest, and the truth is that I’ve been finding it incredibly difficult to be motivated to pursue my artistic endeavours at the current moment. I cannot tell you why I feel this way, but what I can say is that I might be taking some more time to figure myself out. I want to put my art aside for a moment to figure out what I want out of my human experience. You might see me every now and then, but as of today I will be taking some time away from all of this. In the meantime, you can enjoy my single that dropped today, and my improvisation for the #blacklivesmatter movement. Love you all.

So I’ve been going pretty hard in terms of releasing new music this year. It’s been a goal of mine to release music that I feel expresses me and my soul in the most honest way possible, and this upcoming single is no exception. On July 1st, I’m debuting my latest project “The Pottery Lighthouse” everywhere you stream music. This music is what I create when I pick up my guitar. This music takes inspiration from black American musicians, American folk music, sophisticated 12 TET harmony, and chillhop music. This music is me, and I am creating it for you. 07/01/2020 🌱 (at Vancouver, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBWNJhulvvN/?igshid=12f1l8zg9co8b

Finally done book #2 on The Alexander Technique. This has been an incredible journey for me. There are so many factors to living well, and using yourself well. I hope everyone’s holiday season has been grand, and here is to a new year, filled with joy, self-fulfillment, and love. #fmalexander #thealexandertechnique #canstat #musician #use (at The City of Red Deer)

Very exciting day today! I’m super excited to be playing guitar for ‘A Tribute to Liberace’ with my former vocal coach, a musician I’ve known for a large portion of my life, Curtis Labelle! This is an awesome opportunity, and I couldn’t be more grateful to play with the incredible musician I am playing with tonight! #Music #Liberace #christmas #Gig #forestburg (at Forestburg, Alberta)

[johnmarvinscott]

I’m so thankful for all the people who made my first jazz gig in Vancouver a success. I not only had a great time playing with some of my favourite people, but I had the most amazing time hanging out and meeting new people in this beautiful city. ❤️ P.s. I didn’t get any photos...so here’s an aesthetic photo of my neighbourhood. #jazz #yvr #vancouver #musicians #music #trio #christmas #standards #suitandtie (at Vancouver, British Columbia)
