The Stryder was an American band hailing from Long Island, New York. The band was formed by Peter Toh and Scottie Redix in 1999 after their previous project, Yearly, disbanded following the departure of bassist Eben D'amico, who left to join Saves the Day. They added a vocalist and bassist, John Johansen and Nick Wendel respectively. They were on Elkion Records and then Equal Vision Records. The band toured extensively and began writing new material in 2001. They added former Glassjaw drummer Durijah Lang, and moved Scottie Redix to guitar and backing vocals. In mid-2001 the band parted ways with vocalist John Johansen.  You’ll learn about the rest in the interview.

There’s a fire alarm dying in the background the whole time and I tried my best to kill it as much as possible but it creeps through. But you’ll hear odd cuts in what Scottie’s saying. That’s where I’m slicing the audio.

Thank you to Chris Payne for the intro to Scottie who I got on the Skype and this is what we chat about:

• Being friends with and a fan of Glassjaw
• Brand New
• What local drummers influenced him
• Yearly
• Eben’s personality and how it influenced Saves The Day
• Going from drums to guitar
• 911 changing music
• Their relationship with Saves the Day
• What was their relationship like being on Equalvision
• At Your Funeral being about them
• People having a ton of footage that they haven’t digitized
• Being mysteriously sabotaged
• And a ton more

Today, I have a talk with my good friend Chevaughn about his industry trod…so far. This is episode 16, Mike’s Moment Of… The Journey: A Conversation with #urfavouritesinger  

Chevaughn makes a smooth, rich, limitless and Xoul-FULL sound. He is a singer's singer, whose quality sound is unmatched by his peers. His ability to captivate with the magical tones and the rich timbre of his voice is only matched by his own powerful vocal stylings. 

As a singer-songwriter Chevaughn's voice and lyrical prowess resonates with a kind of ageless excellence that harks back to the great crooners of yesteryear. AND yet, the driving force and power in his music is a present day vibration that resonates and represents a whole new generation of people who hunger for a sound and style that is both beautiful and electric at the same time. The discovery of his Jamaican ExotiXoul style is the game-changing electricity of our times. 

Chevaughn's ExotiXoul sound is more than just electrifying. His voice is characterized by a uniquely velvet-smooth tenor with a rich gospel fervor. This, coupled with his charisma and creativity makes him magnetic both onstage and offstage. His vocal presence magnetises listeners and his physical presence pulls audiences in. 

Chevaughn's musical reach stretches across the globe being featured on a myriad of tracks as well as through his affiliation with eclectic roots band C Sharp as their lead singer. He is also known for creating the hook on the 2009 chart topping breakout song 'Holiday' with Ding Dong.

In January 2014, Chevaughn relaunched his solo career, this time working very closely with Frankie Music and Notis Records to produce his debut EP Hopeless Romantic released on March 4, 2014, and distributed by Zojak Worldwide. With more time spent honing his craft, he has delivered Xoul-FULL revolutionary and love songs that ignite and excite. His fans the world over know him by his inimitable voice. In The Bahamas his ‘Know Your Friends', is a hit. His online series Me & You Mondays is also a hit and gives access to his growing fan base. 

'So Many Rivers' produced by Notis, 'You Lose' by Reggae Vibes Music, 'Memories' and 'So Let It Be' by Frankie Music, are fan-favourite power singles. AND nothing energizes a crowd like 'Quintillionaire' which has been adopted as an anthem to countless fans, foreshadowing many great things to come. The transparency and the vulnerability that Chevaughn embraces to tell his story and share his truth is felt on stage. This evolution of the revolution that is ExotiXoul, is a journey that fans will enjoy being immersed in.
