“When Rock Star Charisma Meets Celtic Dervish Fiddling” — Nashville’s Music City Roots

‘Scythian has reinvented folk rock in America’ — iHeart Radio’s Arroe Collin

Named after Ukrainian nomads, Scythian (sith-ee-yin) plays immigrant rock with thunderous energy, technical prowess, and storytelling songwriting, beckoning crowds into a barn-dance rock concert experience.

Celebrating 10 years of getting people dancing all night, Scythian released their new album, Jump at the Sun, this summer, with new songs debuting at album release shows across the country.

Ed Helms’s The Bluegrass Situation has chimed in with praise, calling “Paint This Town” a ‘shine-fueled, fiddle-flying hoedown’ and “Built These Walls” a ‘blue-collar ballad we can all get behind.’ Nashville’s Music City Roots says Scythian is ‘what happens when rock star charisma meets Celtic dervish fiddling.’ Scythian’s “Immigrant Road Show” consists of Alexander Fedoryka, Josef Crosby, Danylo Fedoryka, Ben-David Warner, and Tim Hepburn and Larissa Fedoryka.

“[Scythian gives] no quarter in their quest to entertain and bring a joy to their music that gives it an irony-free, wide open feel of manic possibility. The playing is technically brilliant, but it is the energy that carries the day.” —Camel City Dispatch (Winston-Salem, North Carolina)

“For the past 20 years we’ve relied on hip hop to get people on the dance floor, when in reality they just haven’t discovered [Scythian] yet.”—Arroe Collins, iHeartRadio
