Scott Liss & The Sixty-Six are a three-piece rock/psychedelic folk band from New Jersey formed by singer-songwriter Scott Liss, James Griffith, and Gianni Scalise.
"With recent ink spilled in the Asbury Park Press and a push for industry maneuverability Scott Liss is the underbelly of Asbury’s musical brotherhood, searching, scrap fighting, and clawing for a wider audience.
For the community of artists that have trolled the pits of the music industry up until this point, it is Liss, Sikamor Rooney, Nicole Atkins, and the Parlor Mob that have remained banned together -- intact." -
Martin Halo, TheWaster.com
"Intimate and honest...a strong fist in the air over the heads of hundreds of thousands of self-indulgent rock acts wishing they could sound this good. Scott Liss leads some of the most interesting and appealing songs of the last few years. [His music is] gorgeous and inspiring, as well as wholly characteristic and continually engaging." - Kevin Keating, Origivation Magazine
