Scott Brannon, a native Texan, started playing drums at age thirteen in Columbia, South Carolina sometimes with classmate Lee Atwater, members of the Dixie Dregs, and Lynard Skinner. Scott then attended North Texas State University for 2 years before moving to Boulder, Colorado in 1971.

During the late 70’s Scott discovered that he could play bass and drums at the same time and set out to perfect his technique of right hand tap on bass and left hand and feet on drums. Scott moved to Los Angeles, Ca. to persue his original music and after trying various combinations he met the great guitar and bass player Wayne Smith. Scott and Wayne formed the jazz/rock band Threshold, featuring Scott’s simultaneous bass and drum playing and now known as Random Traveler, they’ve shared the bill with such names as Robin Trower, John Entwhistle, John Mayall, Al DiMeola, Alan Holdsworth, Mark Isham, Kenny Rankin, Fowler Brothers, Fairport Convention, Andy Summers, Rick Derringer, Edgar Winter, Ronnie Montrose, Pieces of a Dream, Fattburger, Tim Weisberg, Bill Bruford, Acoustic Alchemy, and Keiko Matsui.
