Scottish/Mexican/American singer-songwriter Scott Zuniga floats countertenor vocals over alluring acoustic melodies, drawing listeners in with lyrics that blend languages and stories from a life lived at the crossroads of cultures in places like Syria, Scotland, Salt Lake City, and Spain.
Zuniga (pronounced soon-yee-ga) invokes honest childhood in his compositions–filled with the joy of discovery but never forgetting the dark foreignness also inherent in exploration. Born to a Scottish mother and Mexican father, he is no stranger to feeling strange. What sounds like a metaphor or a joke is an actual biographical detail from Zuniga’s life. But his music takes pleasure in blurring the line between metaphor and autobiography.
Scott Zuniga's latest work reflects his ongoing journey of self-discovery, multicultural identity and the quest for the answer to the question, “If I'm not from here, nor there, then where?”
