Hello and welcome to the Scott McMicken specific page of the Press On Records website. My wife Leann and I started this cassette label as an outlet for lots of little projects that we get into, as well as a way to provide cassette copies of great albums that pass our way.
I've personally got a lot of new projects in the works and I'm setting up this zone as a one-stop shop for info on what's going on and what's coming up.
The Hypos
The Hypos is my new band made up of Greg Cartwright, Kevin Williams, Evan Martin, Krista Wroten, and me, Scott McMicken. Our debut album is out now on cassette and the 12" vinyl is available for Pre-Order (shipping May 15th). We also have a 7 inch vinyl record out now featuring "All Summer" and "Heartbroke Town"!
Scott McMicken and THE EVER-EXPANDING
Our full debut album Shabang was released by ANTI- on March 31st, 2023. There are 12" vinyl records, CDs, and cassette tapes available at Anti- and Press On (tapes available at Press On only).
Our 2nd album When It's Happening is out NOW! It's currently available for digital download and streaming on all services. Cassettes and vinyl will be available for PreOrder here at Press On at the end of May 2024 - physical copies are currently in production but we wanted to make the audio available to you now since it's Done!

Also, it already happened, but in January 2023, I taught the first School of Song workshop of the new year! It was a month-long course; a completely amazing experience! School of Song is an online music school whose courses are structured around student interaction. Classes are taught in a live online classroom setting with online lectures, live Q+A sessions, song shares and cool stuff like that. Check out schoolofsong.org for more info and other upcoming courses.
Thanks for checking in here and follow along at pressonrecords for more info on new releases and general Scott (me) type info. Till later!
