“If Chris Stapleton met Pink Floyd on a desert highway at dusk”

“Scot ‘Little’ Bihlman is what happens when Bruce Springsteen meets the Foo Fighters in a Southern Zen monastery.”

“For fans of gritty Americana, funky blues, and motorcycle poetry—Scot ‘Little’ Bihlman is your Zen rocker.”

Scot “Little” Bihlman is an Emmy Award-winning musician, songwriter, and SAG-AFTRA actor based in Los Angeles. Raised between industrial Indiana and the Northern Michigan woods, he channels heartland rock, blues grit, and country soul into raw, story-driven songs about the human condition. Over two decades he’s played everything from juke joints and arenas to the White House, sharing stages or studios with John Fogerty, Jelly Roll, BB King, Trey Anastasio, dUg Pinnick, and more. His music has scored 30-plus TV placements, including Sons of Anarchy, Burn Notice, and All My Children. Fronting each set on vocals, guitar, and drums, Bihlman calls his sound “motorcycle poetry for truth-seekers.” His forthcoming album Heavy Head (produced by Miles Fulwider) starts its waterfall release on August 2025, alongside new drops from his vintage-Americana apparel line, Hillbilly Royalty.

Scot “Little” Bihlman is an Emmy Award-winning musician, songwriter, and actor based in Los Angeles. A seasoned performer with a deep-rooted blues and heartland rock sound, Bihlman has built a life around authenticity, soul, and raw storytelling. His music speaks to the struggles and triumphs of being human, shaped by spiritual practice, motorcycles, and a relentless dedication to craft.

“One of my lyrics I quote a lot is ‘these broken wings can still kick up dust’ that has always resonated to people and myself.”

Now Bihlman is gearing up to release his most personal record yet. Titled Heavy Head and produced by Miles Fulwider, the album drops July 2025. “It starts on the bike,” Bihlman says. “Riding clears my mind. That’s when the songs show up.”

In addition to music, Scot runs the lifestyle brand Hillbilly Royalty and continues acting with recent credits including Spider Man Noir opposite Nicolas Cage.

Whether in a stadium or a dive bar, Bihlman brings the same intention: truth. “I’ll play a juke joint or The White House, I don’t care. As long as I’m playing.”

His fans span ages twenty five to sixty five. They are soulful, grounded, spiritual. They crave something real. With Heavy Head, Bihlman is ready to give them exactly that.

Scot “Little” Bihlman isn’t just a musician. He is an Emmy Award-winning songwriter, a working actor, a Harley riding Taoist, and a fierce believer in the power of real music to heal, connect, and tell the hard truth.  He is a philosopher with a guitar in one hand and a Mala beads in the other. Born in Hammond, Indiana, raised in Northern Michigan, and now based in Los Angeles, Bihlman has been carving his own road through the American music landscape for over two decades. His sound blends heartland rock, blues, and soul into something deeply human and relentlessly authentic. Scot has collaborated, recorded, or appeared with: Jelly Roll, John Fogerty, Buddy Guy, Trey Anastasio (Phish), dUg Pinnck (Kings X),  BB King, Ray Charles, Hank Williams Junior, and ZZ Top  just to name a few. His live appearances span venues as iconic as The White House, the Blues Hall in Athens, and Interlochen Center for the Arts.

Bihlman’s music has also made its way into homes across the country through television, with placements on FOX, CBS, ABC, CMT, and more. His songs have appeared on over 30 shows including Sons of Anarchy, Burn Notice, Cross, All My Children, The Good Guys etc. He has written curriculum for the National Guitar Workshop and wrote the flagship book “The Total Blues Drummer” on Alfred Publishing, and has been featured in Guitar World, Rolling Stone, Blabbermouth, Music Connection, and Modern Drummer etc.

But for Bihlman, it always comes back to the deeper purpose. “My music is about the human condition. It speaks to the struggles and triumphs of the journey we’re all on. I hope people get a deeper sense of connection to their own struggle through these songs.”

That intention is at the center of his upcoming record, Heavy Head, set for release July, 2025. Produced by Miles Fulwider, it is a gritty and reflective collection of songs shaped by movement, loss, and awakening. “It starts with the bike,” Scot says. “I ride. I look around. I take in what I see and how I’m feeling about life. Then the guitar riffs and lyrics come.”

Heavy Head follows in the spirit of earlier albums like Smoke and Dragonflies and The Legend of Hipster Billings. The music is honest, sometimes rugged, sometimes tender, but always driven by a desire to tell the truth and to hold space for what is real.

That same honesty carries through into his visual identity. His lifestyle brand Hillbilly Royalty merges old school motorcycle culture with vintage Americana grit. “The brand, the look, the feeling, it’s part of who I am. It is what I wear on the road. It is how I show up.”

He is also a Screen Actors Guild member, with credits in National commercials, print ads, sitcoms, and recent projects like Spider Man Noir with Nicolas Cage. But for all his creative ventures, music remains the core. “Acting is fun, but music is home. I’ll play a juke joint or The White House, I don’t care. As long as I’m playing.”

Bihlman’s ideal fans are truth seekers and soul followers. “They’re twenty five to sixty five. Hippies. Rednecks. People who love music that speaks to their lives. People who want real lyrics and real stories. They feel things deeply. And they want something that connects their hearts and their souls.”

The world may change. The industry may shift. But Scot “Little” Bihlman remains steady in his mission. “We come here with nothing and we leave with nothing,” he says. “But we have this time. And we’ve got to do something real with it.
