Dale Southard is an American bassist, vocalist and creator best known for his work with the rock and roll band, Phoenix Rising, until its dissolution in 2016. Currently, Dale is the bassist and founding member of Dale’s House of which its name is derived. “I’m not entirely enamored of the Dale’s House moniker” states Dale, “but I’m deeply complimented that this Covid project of converting a 100-year-old garage into a rehearsal studio was the inspiration for the name.” Although an active figure in the music scene since the late 70’s, Dale’s current work with singer-songwriter, Rob Harrington, alongside fellow bandmate, Richy Williams (Phoenix Rising, Hooda THOT) is the bottom and the drive for Dale’s House. Harrington’s music is the basis for the foundation of Dale’s House and their live performances while Dale and his 100-year-old garage have become a mecca for Wasatch Front musicians. He is married and resides in Sugarhouse, Utah.

Williams, a fourth-generation musician, is honored by his musical lineage which began in Carbon County, Utah in the early 20th century. “There is a musical path I willingly travel with those Williams’ who played and performed for generations before I arrived. From smoke filled jazz clubs to church choirs and everything (and I mean everything) in between. A damn colorful bunch of folks!”

The son of a coal miner and raised in Columbia, Utah, he rose to prominence in the late 80’s performing with The Argon’s band where, at the age of 14, performed regularly at the famous Cowboy Club in Wellington, Utah for over a decade. Scooter often incorporates other elements, including harmonica, button box and accordion into his stage performances if and when bands will permit it (which isn't often). An organist by trade, he developed his own driving style, distinct from the 1970’s and 80’s Rhode’s piano-derived funk into a free-form of keys and progressions without ever taking lessons on a piano. Sometimes, he gets them all correct. Currently, Scooter performs regionally with Undeclared Millionaire (Steve Simonson, Kevin Hadley, Dale Southard) and locally with El Dente (Undeclared Millionaire along with Dave Smith, Emily Smith and Smith Duncan of Sake Shot). Most recently, Scooter joined renowned songwriter Rob Harrington (and gang) to begin a master project known as Dale’s House where he plays keys and harp. Scooter credits his love of music to his mentor and teacher, David Dickey of Lee's Music, who first hired Scooter at the age of 8. He is married with 4 children, 2 dogs and 3 damn cats.
