Biography

Northampton MA, United States (1991 – 1997)

Scud Mountain Boys was an American alt-country band. Formed in 1991 in Northampton, Massachusetts, it comprised Joe Pernice, Stephen Desaulniers, Bruce Tull and Tom Shea.

The band at first was known as The Scuds, and their early work was influenced by electric rock. However, they sat round Tull’s kitchen table every night and played acoustic country tunes, and soon decided that they enjoyed this style more. This culminated in the Scud Mountain Boys bringing the table to a concert and playing while sitting down, a move which was enthusiastically welcomed.

The band released three albums before disbanding in 1997: Dance the Night Away (1995), Pine Box (1995) and Massachusetts (1996).

Pernice, the group’s main songwriter, later went on to form the more pop/rock-influenced band The Pernice Brothers.
