Musicians Bike East

By Jasmyn Belcher on Wednesday, November 4, 2009.

A folk-punk musician is trying out the ultimate in green concert touring: embarking on a two-month long bicycle tour down the east coast. Aaron Scott of the band Attica! Attica! currently lives in Portland, Oregon, but he recently came eastward to begin what he calls the Ditch The Van Tour.

A few days before taking to the road via bicycle, Scott played a show at his old stomping grounds in Ithaca, New York. WRVO's Jasmyn Belcher met up with him and produced this audio postcard.
