Skout is Laura Valk and Connor Gladney, a Brooklyn-based duo that plays indie-folk with restless edge. Skout supports rich harmonies with a mesmerizing combination of rhythmic and fingerstyle guitar, proving that you can, in fact, shred on acoustic. The title track from Skout’s most recent release, “Just Words,” peaked at #8 on Spotify’s viral chart and was used as a bumper on The Today Show. “Old Friend” from the same EP was recently featured on MTV’s Catfish. Skout released their single “These Words” in February of this year, and their next single and music video, “Space in Between,” drops on July 6. Skout will be touring in support of the singles this summer, then writing, recording, releasing new music and touring throughout the country for the rest of 2018.
