Coming Home

Stick Figure is the project of Santa Cruz, California-based producer Scott Woodruff. Lumped into a genre dominated by Reggae-Rock bands, Woodruff earned worldwide acclaim by incorporating lower tempo chillout music with elements of Jamaican dub and reggae.

Noted through his restrained vocals, multi-layered arrangements, and heavy riddims, Woodruff independently released four albums between 2006 – 2010 including The Sound Of My Addiction (2006), Burnin’ Ocean (2008), Smoke Stack (2009), and The Reprise Sessions (2010), each winning numerous year end awards and praise from the scene’s most influential blogs and tastemakers. Despite combined album sales topping 50,000, Woodruff veered away from touring in support of the recordings and settled into a reclusive lifestyle- traveling the world for over half a decade and living on the album royalties.

The release of 2012’s Burial Ground invoked a sea change in the producer, who began to embrace the demand to play live shows, establishing a touring band made up of Kevin Bong (KBong) on keyboards, Kevin Offitzer on drums, and bassist Tommy Suliman, fronted by Woodruff on guitar and lead vocals. The quartet headlined their first national tour in 2014, and on the back of multiple advance sell out shows, Stick Figure reached bona fide headliner status throughout North America and the Pacific Islands.

In 2014, Woodruff moved to a mountainside farm outside Santa Cruz, CA. As his housemates experimented in beekeeping and tincture making Woodruff found solace excavating a foundation and constructing a recording studio on the farm, all in preparation for his most ambitious recording to date, Set In Stone (to be released November 13, 2015).

The release of Set In Stone is a culmination of a journey that has seen the producer go from a mysterious figure to becoming a major player and virtually inventing a melodic subgenre of reggae that finds inspiration from midtempo electronic music.

Set In Stone

Stick Figure - In This Love - [Rootfire World Premiere]

Lyrics:
This boats sinking down to the ocean floor
I’m still drinking, drinking from the night before
I’m wishing, wishing right now I was fishing 
I’m thinking, I’m thinking but my mind’s not listening
I never felt so far away
I never lived before today
It’s been awhile since I’ve seen your face
It’s been awhile, time to turn the page

[Chorus] 
I wanna know, I want to know
I want to feel the way I did
I want to go, I want to go
back, back to the way it was

I got a feeling, and this feeling won’t go away
I’m not leaving, I’m waiting for a brighter day
And I believe it, that good things are coming our way
So keep dreaming, I’m feeling like I’m dreaming always
It never felt this strange to me
My guitar is all all I need
It’s been awhile since I’ve been down this road
And it’s been awhile, good things come and go

If the sun is getting closer
Then why does it feel cold?
And in the eyes of the world I’m older
I can’t take it much longer 

[Chorus] 
I wanna know, I want to know
I want to feel the way I did
I want to go, I want to go
back, back to the way it was

Just a little bit longer, the music making us stronger
In the eyes of the world

Set in Stone

Sound of the Sea

CAILLEACH CALLING
(For a Fiery Friend!)
Sun Child Avatar sparks fly you feed the flames burning the old transforming shape shifting waking the dragon sifting through the ashes of your best intentions flying like Icarus too close to the Sun I will not put out the fire it is elemental and I am water I Flow to the primordial sea and recognise your elemental alchemical identity⚡️

CAILLEACH CALLING

Lyrics:
Have you ever felt the light of the moon?
Have you ever tried to scream in silence?
Never looked back, no use
All I ever wanted was to live on an island

Never let a good man down
Have you ever seen a sad man smiling? 
I never understood this world
All I really want is to live it up, live it up now. 

Live it up, live it up now
Above the Storm
Live it up, live it up now

Have you ever seen a break in the cloud?
The rain’s falling down but the sunshine’s shining 
Do you ever get lost in the sound?
Turn it up loud, but the sound keeps dying

I wonder where you go when you die?
It’s a mystery but I think our soul starts flying
I don’t want to wait so long
All you got to do is live it up, live it up now

Live it up, live it up now
Above the Storm
Live it up, live it up now

Close your eyes for a moment,
Focus on the air that you breathe
Think good thoughts and now hold them,
Now you slip into a dream.

And now you slip away to another place
Above the storms and rain,
You’re miles away, you’re miles away

If you’re just now waking up,
I want to send you all some love
And I do it just because
I’ll find a way

Just like a tale as old as time
We’ve been having a good time
Paint the story of a life
Get high with me
I’ve been holding on for years
I’ve been facing all these fears
I’m not afraid 

So when you put your head to rest
Man I wish you all the best
For this life we have been blessed
I could die today, give thanks and praise

Lyrics:
The sun is shining down
And the waves are crashing all around
You know I can be found
Chillin in this little old town

In the middle of the ocean
In the middle of the ocean
In the middle of the ocean
In the middle of the ocean

The sun drifts out of sight
An ocean of stars shining down so bright
I’m feeling good yea I’m feeling alright
Staying up all night playing to the sunrise

In the middle of the ocean
In the middle of the ocean
In the middle of the ocean
In the middle of the ocean

I’ve never felt free like this before
The open ocean is my front door
Oh what a wonderful feeling
I can’t escape this feeling
The warm sunshine brings a brand new season
The trade winds blow 
Yea they blowing with the breeze and
I hear you calling out to me 
In the middle of the ocean is where I’ll be

In the middle of the ocean
I saw my friends down there
In the middle of the ocean
Living life without a care
In the middle of the ocean
Oh yea we having a good time
In the middle of the ocean
Palm trees and the breeze got me feeling alright
In the middle of the ocean
Sleeping all day singing songs all night
In the middle of the ocean
Your warm smile got me feeling so nice
In the middle of the ocean
Damn I feel so free I’m feeling free yea
In the middle of the ocean
On the island that’s where I’ll be
In the middle of the ocean

No worries no way
No worries no way
Sleep in the hammock all day
On an island you’ll find me 
In the middle of the ocean
That’s where I’ll be 
On an island you’ll find me 
In the middle of the ocean
That’s where I’ll be

Middle Of The Ocean (feat. Stick Figure)

Breathe

SMELL THE ROSES

The faux sparkle
The manic glee as
You think you entertain me
But the DNA is shaken AND stirred
The psyche and the aura are mashed
You are too loud
I want to find the off switch
I want to honour the Silence
I want to celebrate the eternal - 
the emptiness 
that is the conception of Creativity and Life
This grey dragon
has no colour  
it is not beautiful
please release it
and put on your coat of many colours
WAKE UP!
and smell the roses 🌹

SMELL THE ROSES

Get Summertime (feat. Citizen Cope) here: https://fanlink.to/sticksummertime

Lyrics:
Who feels it knows it
Who feels it knows it
Who feels it knows it
Who feels it knows it

Yeah the summertime is coming
And it’s about to slow down, slow down
Yeah the summertime is coming
And it’s about to slow down, slow down

All I need is sunshine, all I need is you
We’re here to have a good time, that’s what we’re gonna do
So come with me, come with me
Follow in the shadow, been walking in my shoes 
Nothing else matters, when I’m alone with you
I feel so free, so free

Yeah the summertime is coming
And it’s about to slow down, slow down
Yeah the summertime is coming
And it’s about to slow down, slow down

To the top of the world, from the bottom of the sea
The people always asking, but I won’t change a thing
No not me, I still believe 
Well every step is lasting, step into the sun
Do what makes you happy, that’s the number one
It’s all you need, All you need

Yeah the summertime is coming
And it’s about to slow down, slow down
Yeah the summertime is coming
And it’s about to slow down, slow down
Slow down, slow down
Slow down, slow down
Slow down, slow down
Slow down, slow down
Who feels it knows it

You can laugh, you can sing 
You can make your life a dream
You can pray, you’ve been saying
You’ve been waiting for the day
We’re in an isolated sun without a glimpse of hope
Dark long days, yeah they come and they go
One dips, one trips, one cashes in his chips
One cries, one will hide, one submits to his demise
But another, he makes daybreak out of night
Sings a summer tune, and feels quite alright

Looking for a better day
Looking for a better day
Looking for a better day
Looking for a better day
Looking for a better day
Looking for a better day
Looking for a better day
Looking for a better day

Who feels it knows it
Who feels it knows it
Who feels it knows it
Who feels it knows it

Summertime (feat. Citizen Cope)

Lyrics:
Force my feet to keep on moving
Sounds so sweet when the beat starts grooving
Time flies by, but life is such
I’ve been thinking that I drink too much
I hold my breath but I’m still breathing
Life or death, it never come too easy
Bide my time till the well runs dry
I let the sun rays turn a dark soul bright
 
Shine on like the sun
Holding on to a feeling
Shine on everyone
Find love to believe in
 
What’s mine is yours and what’s yours is mine
They said everything will be just fine
I give my best and I give my all
Feel like everything’s all my fault
Time stands still, but the clock keeps spinning
I close my eyes and get lost for a minute
The words and the tears, they have long dried up
I think I thought that I’d had enough
 
Shine on like the sun
Holding on to a feeling
Shine on everyone
Find love to believe in
 
Had a dream I was flying
That’s where I go when I want to be free
All this time I’ve been trying
To escape to the place where I belong
 
Shine on like the sun
Holding on to a feeling
Shine on everyone
Find love to believe in
Shine like the sun
Shine like the sun
Shine like the sun
Shine like the sun

PROOF OF LIFE
Your heart beats
the rhythm of
your Conscious Self
Your blood pulses
the journey of
your physical body
Spirit pervades
Spirit is the fuel
Together it is
Proof of Life 
Which we begin
with a cry
and leave 
with a sigh
But Love
Oh Love
Love is the Essence
Love is the Rhythm 
Love is the Pulse
Love is the Fuel
and it has nothing 
nothing to prove.....

Stick Figure - Golden Hour

With a distinctive sound developed through tireless attention to musicality and artistry, Stick Figure has redefined American reggae music with his latest album, Wisdom, released on September 9th, 2022. As with his previous releases, Wisdom was written, produced and recorded by Scott Woodruff, a self-taught musician, at Stick Figure-owned Great Stone Studios in Oakland, CA, former home of Green Day.
 
Wisdom is Stick Figure’s seventh album and follows the unprecedented success of 2019’s World on Fire, which peaked at number 34 on the Billboard Top 200, #6 overall Top albums, #1 Independent, and #1 Reggae album. World on Fire has sold over 300,000 copies including streaming equivalents, according to Nielsen soundscan data. Stick Figure’s catalog has now sold well over one million copies and been streamed over three billion times. 

Wisdom is a journey and a search for what matters in life–a search for meaning, purpose, place and belonging. Wisdom is a code to live by where we can accept that it is ok to start over, to make mistakes, to love, and to feel pain. It is a reminder to focus on the little things that bring joy and know that all of it is a part of our individual story. It also shows us that we should have some fun doing it all! In signature Stick Figure style, Wisdom can bring peace and happiness in the dark moments as well as in the good times, and the benefits of the music can stay with the listener long after the record has stopped spinning.

I am not a musician but music plays a very important role in my creative life! I am an artist/designer and music is my companion and my muse in the long hours I spend working in my studio! 
I am immensely impressed and grateful for all the talented and inspiring musicians whose work graces this Cloud, and I will always re-post sounds that I love (and will listen to again) - knowing that others will enjoy them!
I feel slightly embarrassed and quite humbled when I receive such graceful messages of thanks from artists whose work I have re-posted - after-all, I am the one who is so inspired by the discovery of your brilliant music!!!
So thank YOU!!!
Jools :)
P.S. If you want to see where the music takes me there is a link to my Portfolio site on Behance below!!! 
NEW!! - Thanks for all the great feed-back on my work! I shall be re-launching with a website (shop & archive) ‘KULT-JE’ in the not too distant future! Meanwhile, examples of past and current work are featured on my Instagram (@joolselphick)
Since my heart op in Jan2021, I have had to deal with taking quite a lot of meds which have interrupted my design work - that and moving to Germany in 2020 - and back in 2021 (due to Covid my business plans stalled!) - SO, slowly getting it together…. hang tight!😊

I have an archive of my work to date on Instagram - @joolselphick
