Behind the Synth: Scott Brackett and Chris Wellock Chat
This episode of Behind the Synth features Austin-based musicians Scott Brackett and Chris Wellock.
We discovered Scott's cool music-making videos on
Instagram and began featuring them in our
SynthBits series. We loved those videos so much we asked him to do some features on Yamaha Synthesizers. Check out ome of Scott's entertaining and educational videos including:

We had a chance to interview Scott and his musical collaborator Chris Wellock in this weeks episode of Behind the Synth. It was a great conversation with a couple of very creative and talented musicians about their background, musical projects and Yamaha Synthesizers.
