As Inner Door Music recently said of Scott's style, quot;With a great voice, rough and soulful, inviting and warm, Scott writes songs that resonate with the audience. These are strong, heartfelt melodies that completely engage the listener. And when Scott starts singing, people stop talking and listen!quot; Scott's playing of acoustic guitar, electric guitar, bass guitar, mandolin, dobro guitar and even drums all accent Scott's great style, rocking, exciting guitar and passionate yet brooding intensity.
