Dog + Pony Show

Together again!  Dean and Scott bring decades of collective experience.  Introspective, heartfelt original tunes,  and fun covers.   Skills on just about every stringed instrument you can imagine.  Individually, together as a duo, or with special guests players, always a good time to be had,  and never the same twice. Pensive singer/songwriter roots tunes in a folk/blues mode for guitar, mandolin, and dulcimer Scott Snyder has performed worldwide for more than 30 years but Portland is his home. Bassist and Multi-instrumentalist, dean has been backing up musicians of all sorts around portland for over 20 years.  A founding member of Portland’s own Vagabond Opera.  Equally as comfortable backing up a full electric band as playing solo, or doing a soft duo with a jazz singer.  Improvisation and creativity is at the core of everything Dean does musically.
