Scott's original music is a mix of folk, folk-rock, rock and blues. Music is a huge part of Scott's
life and personality. His songwriting is heavily influenced
by Harry,
Tom and
Steve Chapin.
In addition, he credits John McCutcheon,
Jim Croce, John Hiatt and Bruce Springsteen
as influences.
Scott's debut release, Different Directions, features 12 original songs. From the challenges of moving
into another life phase in title track, Different Directions, to the frustrations of dealing with
work-related issues in I Want It Back and The Last Straw, to the strange kind of satisfying loneliness
in Silence Has A Music Of Its Own, Scott's songs capture common experiences that are easily relatable.
The CD is available at Scott's concerts, online at
CD Baby and for download at
iTunes!
Different Directions Lyrics and Sound Clips:
Different Directions is the culmination of an enormous effort-- It took 2 years to record it and 10 years to write it.
The majority of the songs were written within the past 5 years or so, with the title track actually written as one of
the last songs for the CD.
All of the recording, mixing, mastering and artwork was done in Scott's home studio. Scott's friend Bill Pere
introduced him to the world of digital home recording-- Thanks to Bill for all the help and advice.
A very special thank you goes out to Steve Chapin who added a whole new dimension to 8 of the 12 tracks on
the CD with some phenomenal keyboard work. Thank you for all of the strings, horns and piano work.
Also, thanks to Wayne Kessler (harmonica on The Last Straw), Timothy Shneier (piano on I Want It Back) and
Dave Underwood (piano on Silence Has A Music Of Its Own).
