Dr P (Dr Scott Padgett ) began his Columbia music experience as a producer at WUSC radio . He followed that with radio programming & production work in the new frontier of the 'FM underground'. A stint as music editor at the southeast's pioneering alternative newsweekly Osceola Magazine led to becoming the first music writer/columnist at Free Times Magazine. His work appeared in Billboard, the Village Voice, Rolling Stone and practcally every other regional art/political outlet extant through the early nineties. After a stint in radio in Los Angeles & later at Warner Brothers Studios, he returned to the south where he and co-conspirator Steve Gibson vowed to bring live spectrum-spanning music to the masses. Thus was born the legendary Rockafellas music venue and artist management company. Working through Ian Copeland's legendary musical talent booking firm FBI, the likes of Soundgarden, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Smashing Pumpkins, et. al. were initially exposed to club venues all over the U.S. Currently he is part of 5 Points Productions providing festivals and events with customized music (call it artisan music if your jeans are skinny enough) for the customized music-starved, drawing from a library that encompasses the newest CMJ tracks-of-the-moment to the hillbillies of his Appalachian upbrangin'. He is a contributor and social media monitor for semi-important e-music rags as well as several fly-by-night blogs and has a music industry specific twitter account @AntiBonIver which draws on a digest of 104 music news outlets for content. You can contact Scott about any of the above or just ask him how anyone could be this self-absorbed at 5PtsProductions@gmail.com or @ 803.479.5314
