  • Bio

    DRAGONFLY MOON MUSIC presents the work of professional musicians Scott Jasper and Susan Garlick who create unique, evocative and inspirational songs of wild lands and ancient mysteries. Scott & Susan's renowned, insightful and original music is as passionate as it is unique; weaving powerful images that evoke the wild and ancient heart of Britain, they sing of ancient myths and primordial, untamed landscapes - conjuring images of wild rolling hills, magical moorland, mysterious mountains, raging rivers, boundless oceans and sacred places. Their albums are evocative, unique and inspirational; combining passionate, heartfelt vocals and harmonies with guitar, mandolin, mandola, piano, wooden flutes, whistles, didgeridoo and varied world drums including djembes, frame drums, darabuka, bodhran & cajón. Scott and Susan have released seven albums to date and have been performing across the UK for almost a decade, remaining passionate about their unique music and the connection to landscape which it both evokes and inspires. Scott & Susan's atmospheric and engaging concerts combine a variety of instruments and songs and leave people invigorated, uplifted and inspired. SCOTT JASPER is an innovative professional musician, composer, singer/songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist. Whilst specialising in guitar, drums and percussion (including kit drums, djembe, frame drum, darabuka, bodhran & cajón), Scott also plays piano, didgeridoo, high and low whistles and North American style wooden flutes. He runs a private recording studio where he writes, records and produces his acclaimed, bold and insightful music capturing and distilling his passion for wild landscapes and ancient places; working both as a solo artist and as part of a duo with Susan Garlick. Scott has been drumming for over twenty years and is also a professional, highly-regarded and experienced workshop facilitator, well-known and loved for his genuine enthusiasm. He leads popular and inspirational West African drumming and singing workshops around the UK in addition to giving informative lectures on musical pathways to meditation, harnessing tribal musical instruments for health and well-being. As a versatile vocalist and instrumentalist, Scott has performed across the genres of rock, soul, blues, dance and folk and has collaborated with a number of artists. He has released two solo albums to date, four albums as the a duo with Susan and has both produced and provided music for Susan's solo album.
