Joshua Heath Scott is the creator and president of JHS Pedals. His YouTube series, The JHS Show, has garnered millions of views from audiences spanning the globe.
Daniel Danger is an illustrator and print-maker living in the woods of Massachusetts. The son of a middle school art teacher and a professional potter, he was probably never going to be an accountant. His explanation of his own work is borderline nonsense and involves overlapping timelines, references to SIERRA point n' click adventure games, number stations in the desert oscillating whispered conversations, the death of ghosts at the hands of foliage, giant trauma shadow beings born of kidnapped children that drip wolf shadows, and 1920s childrens books. He is the lost boy-king of Ghost Island, and a broken brain'd hoarder of vintage music gear, old toy ambulances, and bad hardcore records. Him and his wife have a dog named after noted character actor Toby Huss and a daughter named Dorothy. Daniel plays or has played in the following bands: Caspermask, A City Safe From Sea, The Saddest Landscape, IDNOCLIP, Squall, XcrimedogX, & Some Stranger.
Dan Epstein is an award-winning journalist who has written for Rolling Stone, MOJO, FLOOD, the LA Times, Guitar World, Revolver, eMusic, the Jewish Daily Forward and dozens of other print and online outlets. Epstein has worked as a producer at VH-1, an editor at Revolver magazine and the now-defunct ShockHound.com, and is the author of Stars and Strikes: Baseball and America in the Bicentennial Summer of ’76, Big Hair and Plastic Grass: A Funky Ride Through Baseball and America in the Swinging '70s,Honky-Tonk Tourist: The Night Buck Owens Almost Got Me Killed, and 20th Century Pop Culture. He is also the co-author of The Captain & Me: On and Off the Field with Thurman Munson with Ron Blomberg, and Stompbox: 100 Pedals of the World's Greatest Guitarists and Vintage & Rarities: 333 Cool, Crazy and Hard to Find Guitar Pedals with Eilon Paz. An avid historian of music, baseball and pop culture, Epstein has been dubbed "The Bangs-ian Herodotus of 70s Baseball" by Cardboard Gods author Josh Wilker. Epstein lives in Greensboro, NC.
