Relevant Magazine Interview

Scott has an interview in this month's Relevant Magazine (with Bear Grylls on the cover). He talks about art and music and how his spirituality plays a role in what he does.

It should be up on the Relevant website in the next couple of days.

Awesome. Thanks so much for tracking that down, lockwes! It's a really nice little read.

"I've never been too good at reading in between the lines."

Nice hearing Scott's thoughts on his faith. Powerful stuff: "I do still think a person's relationship with God is his or her intimate and individual obligation. It shows up in every minute and decision you make. If there is no faith or spirituality in that, no matter what the message is, it comes through in the delivery."

Also love that there's a shoutout to the brothers' "controversial facial hair" Smiling Thanks for posting the link!

Great interview, if a little exaggerated at times. I love when journalists go somewhere beyond the obvious Rick Rubin and success-related questions, and Scott had a lot of really thoughtful things to say. Thanks for digging this up, Wes! By the way, you've got mail.

I have been waiting for Relevant to interview the boys for years! The editor and founder, Cameron Strang, is a huge fan. So excited!

that's great, thank you! Love the little insights of his interior life that Scott shares.

Free is not your right to choose, It's answering what's asked of you, To give the love you find until it's gone.

Survivorman!

What a great article!

Just finished reading this article.....very well done! It is always good to get more insight into the artists you follow, and so naturally as a Christian, I enjoy reading how a person's faith plays into their art. It is particularly interesting and poignant to me. Thanks, Scott, for sharing your insightful, down to earth thoughts in Relevant.
