About this listen

This week on No Simple Road, we drop into Bend, Oregon to hang with Spencer and Scottie of Spencer Marlyn Band, a rising force in the Central Oregon music scene and a perfect example of what happens when community, creativity, and live music all grow together. We sit down in the studio with Spencer and Scottie to talk about the band’s origin story, the evolution of their sound, and the joys and challenges of building a musical life in a town that truly shows up for its artists. We dig into songwriting, improvisation, and the ways local scenes help shape a band’s identity. A big part of the conversation centers around Homegrown Music Festival in Bend, a celebration of local talent and grassroots support that embodies everything we love about independent music. The band shares what Homegrown means to them, how festivals like this strengthen the creative ecosystem, and why keeping music local and intentional matters now more than ever. We also explore the deeper side of the journey — staying inspired, navigating the modern music landscape, and finding balance while chasing the thing you love. It’s a conversation rooted in place, purpose, and the belief that music thrives when it’s supported at the ground level. If you love discovering new bands, supporting local music, and hearing how scenes are built from the inside out, this episode is for you. Visit spencermarlynband.com for show info and more!
