As a teenager, Scott picked up the bass guitar on a whim. Natural talent
and the lure of a challenge drove him to be the best musician he could and
discover his love for singing, songwriting and the upright bass. With the
encouragement of his teacher, he went on to study music in college.
Scott moved to Nashville after school, and he would meet American music
icon Ricky Skaggs and join his Grammy winning band, Kentucky Thunder. He
toured with Ricky for five years, and in that time, first started writing songs
on his upright bass.
He has shared the stage with some of the greatest artists of modern music,
such as: Alison Krauss, Barry Gibb of the BeeGees, Bruce Hornsby, Brad
Paisley, Peter Frampton, Steven Curtis Chapman, Emmylou Harris, Dave
Barnes, Ben Rector, and many more.
Scott’s songs have received honors or been featured in NPR’S Tiny Desk
Contest, the International Songwriting Competition, John Lennon
Songwriting Contest, and American Songwriter Magazine’s 30th Anniversary
Contest, and he has had numerous cuts on other artists’ albums.
He’s currently touring in support of his September release, Top Of The
Stairs (EP), which was produced by himself, Charlie Peacock (The Civil Wars,
The Lone Bellow) Gary Paczosa (Alison Krauss, Sarah Jarosz), and Shani
Ghandi (Sarah Jarosz).
