With Celtic, colonial, medieval, rock, and Renaissance
influences, Scott has developed a repertoire of songs on the hammered
dulcimer which he now performs at Downtown Disney, concerts, corporate
events, private parties, street and Renaissance festivals throughout
Orange County, Central and Northern California, Las Vegas, and
San Diego.
As a multi-instrumentalist, Scott plays
and records the majority of what he calls his "backing tracks."
These tracks are studio mixes of guitars, cello, bass, drums,
mountain dulcimer, mandolins, and synthesizers to create the foundation
of his music. He then performs live with the hammered dulcimer
to combine the sounds for a presentation of what sounds like a
full ensemble.
Scott has four studio albums, The Burning of
the Piper's Hut (American folk / colonial), The Road to
Lisdoonvarna (Celtic), Home for the Holidays (Christmas),
and Tristan of the Western Sea (massage / yoga / meditation).
His new CD he is nearing completion and will be 100% rock and
roll covers like 'Stairway to Heaven', The Cure's 'Just Like Heaven',
Billy Idol's 'White Wedding', Elton John's 'Daniel', Coldplay's
'The Scientist', and R.E.M.'s 'Losing My Religion'. This CD will
be ready in March 2010. The CD after that will be the much awaited
DULCITALLICA of all Metallica songs.
Since the hammered dulcimer is such an unusual
instrument, people are very drawn to it. Children, especially,
find it mesmerizing. "It's perhaps the best part of this
adventure," Scott says, "
watching the expressions
on children's faces, talking to them, and the best is letting
them play the dulcimer. There are always several that leave an
impact on me whenever I play. It's very heartfelt and magical."
