Scythian is a Celtic rock/Americana band based in the DC Metro Area that formed in 2002.[1] The band's name, according to the members of Scythian, means "[a] bunch of pre-Mesopotamian barbarians who did not use forks or phonics," which they chose to describe a varying sound that encompasses everything from traditional jigs and reels to contemporary covers.[2] The band was named after Ukrainian nomads, Scythians, due to the Ukrainian ancestry of Alexander and Danylo Fedoryka.

Since its inception, Scythian developed from a group of street performers in Alexandria, VA,[3] to the 2009 winner of Washington City Paper's Best of DC 'Best Local Band' competition.[4] In 2004 the band scored a brief appearance in the M. Night Shyamalan film The Village.[5] The band has toured extensively on the East Coast.[6] The UB Post describes their sound as a mix of Celtic, Klezmer, Gaelic, Gypsy and Rock.[3]

The band currently comprises brothers Alexander Fedoryka (Violin/Mandolin/Harmonica/Bass/Vocals) and Danylo Fedoryka (Rhythm Guitar/Accordion/Vocals), as well as band members Ethan Dean (Bass/Percussion/Vocals) and Johnny Rees (Percussion/Drums/Vocals).[7]

Josef Crosby's departure

Josef Crosby stopped appearing with the band in May 2016, and Larissa Fedoryka took over on bass. On December 13, 2016, Josef Crosby posted an explanation of his departure on his own Facebook band page.[8] He stated that he had taken some time away to address his substance abuse issues, and moving forward he would be continuing his musical career separate from Scythian.

Josef Crosby joined forces with Victor Gagnon, formerly of Seven Nations, to create Pigeon Kings in 2017.[9] Their first show was at Celtic Fling in PA June 2017.[10] Former Scythian drummer Andrew Toy later joined Pigeon Kings.[11]
