scxtty releases debut EP

Hailing from Demarest in New Jersey, Scotty Buksbaum is a rising indie punk artist making music under the scxtty moniker. Since exploding onto the scene in May 2021 with his debut single “Let Me Out (21st Century)” he’s won over fans and critics alike with his relatable songs resonating with listeners around the world.

Going on to share a string of compelling singles over the last eighteen months, he now brings us his latest release with his debut EP titled Life Though Roses. Across the six-track release which includes the collaborative track “Baseball Cards” with Madhavi Devi, scxtty serves up his energising punk pop sound framed by nostalgic tones and moving lyricism.

Written over the last few years, the EP tracks the artist’s experience living in his early 20s and how he fared navigating life and relationships. Delivering an array of emotions, he captures all the multi-faceted feelings to go hand-in-hand with a journey of self-discovery, despair and hope.

Full of driving drums, gritty guitar tones and capped by his instantly catchy vocal leads, with his first EP, scxtty offers a thrilling run through of modern rock pop music. Closed by the title track “Life Through Roses”, the EP is resolved by a delicate acoustic song about finding closure in a relationship, providing the perfect artistic outro to his sensational first EP.

Commenting on the highlight title track “Life Through Roses”, scxtty offers, “It’s often hard to find that closure with the other person especially when you don’t want to talk to them, so I guess I found it through the past years of working on myself and growing older. The song speaks my story and the difficulties of moving on but reassuring yourself that it is okay to move on.”
