Scott Wolfson and Other Heroes are celebrating their fifth year as New Jersey's indie folk powerhouse. From beginnings in 2011, they have launched into success both on the air and on the ground. Their debut album, Life On Fire, reached #8 on the
Roots Music chart and charted on Folk DJ's list of most played 2014 albums. 2016's Welcoming the Flood gathered rave reviews and top-charting airplay, and the band continues to expand its touring range. Dubbed "wizards" and "musical scamps", they deftly adapt their big, catchy, complex sound from festival stages to listening rooms.
The band loves to swap songs with fellow players, and it shows. Lucky audiences have caught them hatching musical mischief on stage with their friends including The Kennedys, The Levins, Bobtown, and fellow 2016 Falcon Ridge "
Most Wanted" artists Gina Forsyth and
Annika Bennett. Add Scott's lyrical imagery and unconquerable voice soaring above the rich counterpoint laid down by Kirk, Matt, Chris, and Skyler, and as No Depression's Lee Zimmerman writes, they "...will not only defy the norm, but all expectations as well."

"This band doesn't hesitate to ignite like a match on their fiery second collection, Welcoming The Flood. Listen to these dudes…these people are magicians…wizards…" - John Apice, No Depression -
"Scott Wolfson & Other Heroes is a talent-laden band. They're equally comfortable going electric or acoustic, and Welcoming the Flood is full of well-crafted songs that reveal new insights with repeated listening." - John Platt, WFUV -
