Eliott’s guitar expertise and beautiful tenor voice combined with his witty way with lyrics give him a distinct sound. His onstage presence is comedic and interactive showing his love for performing and sharing his creative musical perspective.
Scaling Giants is an acoustic duet with singer-songwriters Eliott Ferguson and Erynne Gemberling. The duo sings originals and covers that move between richly harmonied love songs, to playful humor.
Their playful onstage presence reflects their offstage song writing creativity – resulting in a range of songs from sweet humor to intense passion, and always with a kick.
Influences: Civil Wars, Nickel Creek, Jason Mraz, Colbie Caillat

September 1, 2013I was at the Iris Dement concert where Scaling Giants opened for her. I thought they blew away the audience with their witty sense of humor and awesome harmonies. It's not just a concert, it's an experience. Iris should have been opening for them. I can't wait to hear Scaling Giants in the future and hope they get booked at more venues so more people can enjoy their music. They are a real treat!
