"Wino" is the moniker of Scott "Wino" Weinrich, a celebrated figure in the realm of doom metal and stoner rock. Born in 1960, Wino has become a legendary guitarist and vocalist, most renowned for his work with pioneering doom bands such as The Obsessed, Saint Vitus, Spirit Caravan, The Hidden Hand, and Shrinebuilder. Over the course of his storied career, he has earned a reputation for his deeply personal and introspective approach to songwriting and for his soulful, gritty vocal style.

Wino's solo work is an expressive extension of his collaborative ventures, showcasing his remarkable versatility and devotion to his craft. Albums like "Adrift" (2010) and "Forever Gone" (2020) offer a more intimate and acoustic-driven side of his music, while "Heavy Kingdom" (2012), a collaboration with Conny Ochs, and "Freedom Conspiracy" (2015), reveal Wino's ability to create dynamic and powerful music regardless of the setting. His respect for fellow musicians shines through in projects such as "Songs of Townes Van Zandt" (2012), where he pays homage to the prolific singer-songwriter. Whether performing crushing riffs or reflective melodies, Wino has firmly planted himself as an enduring, if not enigmatic, icon in the heavy music landscape.
