Scott Meissner is a self-described, "Musician, singer, songwriter, producer, arranger, audio engineer, art director, sound technician, sales & marketing department, coffee go-getter, studio grunt and all-around good guy!"
And all of those things are in evidence on his debut disc, "On the Edge of Something?" released under the name Majestic Mudd. Meissner celebrates the arrival of the disc with a gig on Friday, Jan. 9 at John Harbor's Main Street Coffee House, N88 W16521 Main St., in Menomonee Falls.
Mixing acoustic guitars and melodies in a style reminiscent of his influences like Willy Porter, Ben Harper and Jars of Clay, "On the Edge of Something?" is an adult alternative acoustic gem.
To create the 11-track disc -- which Meissner has said is a tribute to his late elder brothers David and Jeff who were his musical mentors -- the singer and songwriter called on a host of friends, including Steve Chmielewski and Eric Madunic -- his collaborators in the cover band Old Mil -- Chuck Brummond and Greg Knaebe.
"Dave and Jeff, were, and still are the greatest guitarists and musicians I have ever had the opportunity to witness," Meissner has said. "I learned to play several instruments and write songs mainly from my two older brothers. They were and will always be my heroes, my role models, my teachers, and my mentors. Both of my brothers have inspired so many and have left a huge footprint on this world in such a short time."
Meissner produced and engineered the disc at his own Big Meiss Studio.
