Storytelling is such an art form in small towns that it's often hard to decipher the simple truth from the embellished legends. But that unique quality fosters some amazing tales. The band Small Town Gossip tells their stories by way of acoustic-driven alternative music. Their sweet sound is a rumor just waiting to be spread.

The three men of Small Town Gossip began playing music at an early age. Intrigued by their experiences and driven by their passion, they all chose to pursue music at a higher level. Singer/songwriter Steven Hall, guitarist Daniel Seriff, and bass player Nathan Scott attended the North Carolina School of the Arts in Winston Salem, NC. In 2007 Hall and Seriff began making music together. After touring North Carolina as a duo, the two formed Small Town Gossip with Scott in 2009.

Hall says he likes to write songs based on true stories; stories that surround us every day just begging for an outlet to be heard. The group draws its name from a song, written by Hall, about the simple pleasure of hanging out with old friends in your hometown. Conveying their experiences through music just comes natural to the vibrant group.

Their mix of talent, passion, and personality makes Small Town Gossip a bit of welcome news that's bound to travel fast.
