Originating from the South Dakota Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, Clifford created songs about his Indigenous culture. One of the main goals was to influence the Indigenous society to make a positive difference. Scott Clifford began his musical career as a song writer and backup vocalist/guitarist for the Native American band Indigenous.
The Oglala Lakota, has performed in events such as the 2016 Gathering of Nations Pow Wow and was nominated for the Native American Music awards. Love for music has also allowed the opportunity to fight for Indigenous equality and culture, hoping to bring awareness to the detrimental events that have affected many Native Americans' lives.
Scatter Their Own has released two albums - Catch A Fire (2012) and Taste the Time (2014) - with eight songs in total. Even with a limited catalogue, constant travel throughout the United States has increased awareness for Indigenous people. The Band has performed at many reservations, along with other venues from "Canada to Texas as well as journeying from Los Angeles to New York City." Well known throughout the Native American community, the internet and social media has allowed for more followers to support this Band. Creating songs that focus on Lakota identity and environmental issues: protection of sacred land is extremely important to the band. As songs were written about the earth, the Band’s voice was heard by non-natives and their passion for music brings awareness to the lives living on the Indian Reservations.
