Land Ho!’s Scott Tanner Releases New Song With Duke Silver to Be Featured on Upcoming Mouse Rat Album
Even for the most diehard fans of Pawnee, Indiana’s thriving rock scene, it’s been quite some time since the world last heard from Scott Tanner, the enigmatic frontman of one of the most popular bands in the city’s history, Land Ho!

That’s right, the Andy Dwyer-fronted quartet known as Mouse Rat is back. Last seen on the national stage when their critically acclaimed docuseries, Parks and Recreation, ended in 2015, the legendary rockers took to social media last month to tease an announcement coming today, but no one could have expected Dualtone Music Group to partner with the the multimedia giants in Entertainment 720 to release the band’s long-awaited album on vinyl, CD, and cassette.
