Flicker is the musical brainchild of songwriter, musician and native Chicagoan, Scott Fischer.\u00a0 Fischer has been writing and performing music since his teenage years, and not just any music- inside Fischer\u2019s brain lurks a colorfully symphonic amusement park.\u00a0 Attractions include full albums filled with satirical and humorous lyrics, rock operas, rich musical tapestries and metaphorical trips down the memory lane of a mad scientist composer.\u00a0 A thrilling ride as both spectator and participant, Fischer\u2019s Flicker\u2019s music inspires with big melodies and ambitious composition, taking you on a wildly impassioned journey.<\/p>\n<p>With seven studio albums under his belt, hundreds of live shows and a stretch of corporate cover band gigs which included a five-week Virgin Islands residency, a few large profile shows at \u201cSummerfest\u201d and the \u201cVince Lombardi Awards\u201d, Fischer never stops pushing boundaries with his ambition and talent.\u00a0 Additionally, Fischer delivered a stellar performance in \u201cThe Rod Stewart Experience\u201d with Carmine Appice and an all-star cast of other Stewart alumni, as well as maintaining a recurrent part of the roundtable on \u201cThe official Frank Zappa podcast: Zappacast\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>His evolution in original music consists of bands Deja Voo Doo which became Powderhouse, then morphing into Babaganoo and ultimately, Fischer\u2019s Flicker which includes members and long-time musical contributors Tim Gavin on drums and Andy Sviatko on bass, Rick Lyons and Michael Duttge on guitars.\u00a0 In 1998, Deja Voo Doo\u2019s <em>Carpe P.M.: Honor Comes Only After Humility<\/em> was released as a concept album whose success led to Fischer\u2019s involvement in \u201cZappening 2000\u201d (a tribute festival to Frank Zappa).\u00a0 Fischer began playing with the multimedia aspects of his live performances during this time, and those revelations encouraged artistic experimentation in other capacities within his musical repertoire, down the road.<\/p>\n<p>From introspective and chest-hitting numbers to eye-rolling, satirical guffaw-out-loud ditties to extended exploratory epics, Fischer has bared it all through his numerous musical releases.\u00a0 Fischer\u2019s seventh (and latest) album, <em>Open 28 Hours<\/em>, revisits the humor and camp of Fischer\u2019s previous musical bodies of work, and also maintains a musically mature songwriting style and Fischer\u2019s signature vocals.\u00a0 Live performances of <em>Open 28 Hours<\/em> have included a dazzling light show pontificating the vibe of each song.\u00a0 Fischer\u2019s Flicker has also tested their talent in front of the camera with accompanying music videos as a method of more visibly broadcasting their new material to a wider audience.<\/p>\n<p>Whether Voo\u2019d, Goo\u2019d, Powder\u2019d or Flicker\u2019d, Scott Fischer\u2019s musical career had spanned both time and space with concepts as complex as alien life in faraway galaxies, and as simple and relatable as lost time and broken hearts.\u00a0 Fischer\u2019s Flicker\u2019s music continues to forge ahead with humor, candor and musical collaboration with Scott Fischer at the helm, conducting the ride.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fischer\u2019s Flicker is the musical brainchild of
