Stooky Bill

"Stooky Bill" was the name given to the head of a ventriloquist dummy that Scottish television pioneer John Logie Baird used in his 1924 experiments to transmit a televised image between rooms in his laboratory at 22 Frith Street, London. As the first image ever broadcast live on television, the image of Stooky Bill represented a pioneer. It was raw... grainy... little bit disturbing... but nonetheless, it was captivating, and hinted at limitless possibility.

Like the pioneering image itself, Wm. "Scott" Browning, Andy Dompier, and Craig Hanson, together as Stooky Bill, have created unique music, invoking a sense of possibility and wonder, while pairing it with the true grit sounds that naturally come out of the Pacific-Northwest.
