Little Tybee Interview

Little Tybee is something of a mini orchestra with its five members all engaged in intricate musicianship. Their name comes from a tiny island off the coast of their native Georgia, where, legend has it an undetonated atomic bomb from the 1950s lies missing. They jokingly attribute the quirkiness of their debut album Building a Bomb to the long-term effects of eating radiation-drenched seafood, but it’s more likely that band mastermind Brock Scott was just born that way. Scott dropped by New York with instrumental cohorts to play some of the delicate but feisty tunes from Building a Bomb for ASCAP.

When surprise summer thunderstorms dampened plans to film in the backyard, the band gamely squeezed into the acoustically wonderful but decidedly “cozy” front bedroom of Playback editor Lavinia Jones Wright’s furniture-less Brooklyn apartment. The music scared off the clouds just in time for an outdoor chat with Scott about Little Tybee’s creative process and their place in the burgeoning Atlanta indie scene.
