If you’ve searched for Scott Woodruff, you’ve probably noticed that every site seems to know his birthday, his net worth and his wife’s name, and no two of them agree. I spent a while digging through them, and the short version is this: most of it is copied from one aggregator to the next, and very little of it traces back to Woodruff himself.
What is solid is the music. Woodruff is Stick Figure. He writes the songs, plays most of the instruments, sings, mixes, and owns the label that releases the records. His official bio says the music is almost entirely written, recorded, produced and performed by him, and that it’s passed five billion streams. Below, I’ve sorted what holds up from what doesn’t.
Quick Answer
- Who he is: founder and frontman of Stick Figure, the American reggae-dub act.
- Age: he hasn’t confirmed it himself. Music platforms list August 21, 1992 (age 34), but that date sits awkwardly with his early career. More on that below.
- Net worth in 2026: no confirmed number. Secondary sites guess anywhere from $1 million to $3.5 million.
- Wife: sites name four different women and one says he’s single. Nobody cites a source, so nothing is confirmed.
- What is confirmed: World on Fire (2019) peaked at No. 34 on the Billboard 200 and No. 1 on the reggae chart, and Burial Ground (2012) topped the iTunes and Billboard reggae charts.
- Coming up: a new album with no release date yet, and the Enjoy the Ride Tour from June 3 to July 17, 2027.
Every dollar figure in this piece is an estimate, and I’ll flag it each time.
Who Is Scott Woodruff?
He’s a self-taught multi-instrumentalist from Massachusetts who built one of the biggest independent reggae acts in the country. Stick Figure started as a one-man bedroom project and grew into a full live band. A heads-up on names: plenty of other people are called Scott Woodruff, and search results mix them up. Everything here is about the Stick Figure founder.
How Old Is Scott Woodruff?
Most sites repeat the same birthday: August 21, 1992, which would make him 34 now. It isn’t made up. Shazam’s artist page lists it, and Apple Music’s bio says he was born in 1992. What I couldn’t find is Woodruff saying it in an interview, a press release or anywhere official.
And the timeline makes me hesitate. That same Apple Music bio says that by 2006 he had a 16-track home studio and had recorded his debut, The Sound of My Addiction. Wikipedia has him writing and producing from 2005 and releasing the album in December 2007, and it also says he started posting instrumentals as a college freshman. Born in 1992, he’d have been 13 or 14 at the start and about 15 at release. Not impossible, but it doesn’t match the freshman detail.
The sites copying the date don’t even agree on what it adds up to. Depending on the page, the same birth year gets you 32, 33 or 35.
So if you need to write his age somewhere, “34, according to music-platform listings” is the honest version. A flat “34” claims more than anyone can back up.
Early Life and Education
Woodruff grew up in Duxbury, Massachusetts. According to Apple Music’s bio, he picked up drums at 12, got good at guitar soon after, and made his first multitrack recordings on a dual cassette deck. The “Stick Figure” name goes back to high school.
He did go to college, but no reliable source names the school or a degree, so I’m not going to guess. His real education was years of teaching himself to record.
Music Career Timeline
| Year | Milestone |
|---|---|
| 2005–2006 | Stick Figure starts as a solo project (sources differ on the year) |
| Dec 11, 2007 | The Sound of My Addiction, his first album, on his own Ruffwood Records |
| Jan 16, 2008 | Burnin’ Ocean |
| 2009 | Smoke Stack, heavier and more dub-influenced; he moves to San Diego |
| 2010 | The Reprise Sessions |
| Jun 12, 2012 | Burial Ground, which topped the iTunes and Billboard reggae charts |
| Nov 13, 2015 | Set in Stone, recorded at his studio near Santa Cruz |
| Aug 30, 2019 | World on Fire, No. 34 on the Billboard 200, No. 1 on the reggae chart |
| Sep 9, 2022 | Wisdom |
| 2026–2027 | Eighth album in progress, 2027 tour announced |
How the live band came together. After the move to San Diego, keyboardist KBong joined and the two of them played bar gigs while drummers and bassists drifted in and out. Once Burial Ground was out in 2012, Woodruff built a proper live lineup, and an offer to open for The Green sent them on their first coast-to-coast run. Their first headlining tour came right after.
Counting the albums. Wikipedia lists seven full-length albums plus one instrumental record. Some listings call Wisdom the eighth studio album, and a 2016 interview called Set in Stone his sixth, so you’ll see the count move around depending on where you look. The official line is that Wisdom followed seven earlier records.
The “No. 8 on the Billboard 200” claim. One site says Smoke Stack hit No. 8 on the Billboard 200. I think that’s a garbled version of something real. Qobuz’s biography says an early record peaked at number eight on Billboard’s Reggae Albums chart. On the main Billboard 200, his best result is World on Fire at No. 34.
Why he never signed. Ruffwood Records has put out every album he’s made. Later he bought Great Stone Studios in Oakland, which used to be Green Day’s, and World on Fire sounds bigger for it. Owning his label and his studio matters a lot for the money question further down.
The Stick Figure Band
In the studio it’s still mostly Woodruff. Onstage, the lineup is:
- Kevin “KBong” Bong on keys
- Kevin Offitzer on drums
- Tommy Suliman on bass
- Johnny Cosmic on guitar, keys and backing vocals (he also helps mix the records at Great Stone Studios, per AXS)
- Will Phillips on percussion
Popular Songs
- “Weight of Sound” (feat. TJ O’Neill) and “Breathe”, both from Burial Ground (UkuTabs)
- “So Good”, an early breakout from Burnin’ Ocean that borrows the melody of “Mad World”
- “Easy Runaway” (2018), which premiered on SiriusXM The Joint
- “Smokin’ Love” with Collie Buddz (feat. Half Pint) and “Choice Is Yours” with Slightly Stoopid
- “Feel Like That” with Sublime, which reached No. 6 on Alternative Radio
- “Home” with Jack Johnson
- “What a Feeling”, which the official press release says has passed 25 million plays
Scott Woodruff Net Worth 2026
There’s no verified figure, so here’s what’s floating around:
| Source type | Claimed figure | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Several aggregators | ~$1 million | The most common one, copied from site to site |
| One aggregator | ~$1.5 million | Paired with a $300K a year income claim |
| One aggregator | ~$3.5 million | The newest, with no method shown |
One list site says $1.2 billion. That’s plainly wrong, so ignore it. The income claims are no sturdier: one page says $76K a year, others say $300K or $500K–$700K, and none say where the number came from.
Where the money probably comes from
- Streaming and masters. Since Ruffwood releases his albums, he’s likely keeping a bigger cut than a signed artist would. His official bio claims over five billion streams, two gold albums, and the spot of top-selling living reggae artist worldwide after Bob Marley. All of that is artist-reported.
- Touring. The tour press release says his shows average over ten thousand tickets, that he’s been a top Pollstar tour the past two summers, and that he’s played Coachella and Bonnaroo. That’s artist-reported too, though Pollstar tracks real ticket counts, so it’s checkable.
- Merch, vinyl and CDs sold directly. No public figures.
- Production work for other artists. The same bio lists Sublime, Jack Johnson, Stephen Marley, Slightly Stoopid and SOJA.
- Books. Cocoa the Tour Dog, written with Adam Mansbach, is called an Amazon number one seller in the music book category and a top-selling children’s book in 2025.
- Studios. Great Stone Studios and his Santa Cruz studio are assets, but nobody has published a valuation.
What the stream count suggests
Take the often-quoted rate of $0.003 to $0.005 per stream. Five billion streams would then be roughly $15–25 million in gross royalties across the whole catalog. That’s money split between everyone with a stake in the recordings, then trimmed by distribution fees and taxes, so it tells you the scale, not what he earned. Still, next to those numbers, $1 million looks low to me. I can’t prove a better figure, and neither can the sites quoting one.
Wife, Girlfriend and Family
This is where the search results get messy. One site names a wife and says an engagement was announced on a Stick Figure Facebook post in September 2024. Another site gives a different name. A third gives yet another, then says in the same article that he isn’t publicly married. A fourth says he’s single and brings up someone called “Amanda.” Four answers, and not one source.
I looked for that Facebook post and for any news report of an engagement or wedding, and found neither. So I’m not printing a name. If she’s a private person, a copy-pasted aggregator page isn’t enough reason to put her name in an article. Children are unconfirmed as well, and the one site that claims two kids contradicts itself elsewhere on the same page.
If Woodruff ever shares news like this, it’ll show up first on the official Stick Figure channels. A good rule of thumb: if a page gives details like how they met or what the wedding looked like but names no source, it’s filler.
Cocoa the Tour Dog
Cocoa is his rescued Australian shepherd, and she’s far more than a mascot. A concert listing calls her the band’s canine mascot whose stage entrance fans look forward to, and the San Diego Reader says she joins the band onstage every night. In a 2016 interview Woodruff said she goes everywhere with him and loves to travel. World on Fire even has a cover called “Cocoa de Rock,” which one reviewer took as a nod to her. And yes, the children’s book with her name on it came out with Adam Mansbach. <!– IMAGE 2 (Cocoa section): a licensed/original photo of Cocoa.

Height, Real Name, Instagram and Wikipedia
- Real name: Scott Woodruff. “Stick Figure” is the project name.
- Height: sites say 6’2″ or 5’10”. Neither is verified, and he’s never given a number himself.
- Instagram: the band posts through its official channels, which you can reach from stickfiguremusic.com.
- Wikipedia: the band has a page, but I couldn’t find a standalone one for him. The band article covers his background.
What’s Next
The band says 2026 is for new music, a finished album and a redesigned live show. The Enjoy the Ride Tour was announced in June 2026. It opens June 3, 2027 at Talking Stick Resort Amphitheatre in Phoenix and wraps July 17, 2027 at The Gorge in Washington, with stops in Denver, Grand Rapids, New York, Boston, Tampa and more (JamBase, The Pier). Press materials say the album is due before the tour starts, but there’s no release date yet.

The Bottom Line
A self-taught kid from Duxbury recorded every part himself, held on to his masters, bought a famous studio and turned word of mouth into amphitheater tours. The two things people search for most, his exact age and his net worth, are the two nobody has verified. Treat every dollar figure here as an estimate, and until Woodruff says otherwise, trust the career record over the gossip.
