Scott is a super hip guitarist in the Philly area. His style is a fresh mix of inside and outside harmonic elements. He has played with many great cats over the years but is devoted to his family and day job at present. He is comfortable in many styles ranging from bop to swing to fusion to blues and rock. He smokes at all of them!

Band History:
I have been playing guitar since 1976. I went to Berklee from 1987-90 where I got to play with many great cats. I played professionally in the tri-state NJ area from 1990-92, including much work in Atlantic City at the casinos. Since 1992 I am both a financial consultant and a freelance jazz guitarist. The mp3's on this page include some recent internet collaborative efforts that I have done. I recommend www.digitalsoundplanet.com It is a great site to create music over the 'net.

Anything else...?
I really dig Scott's outside triadic licks and effective use of tritonic reharmonization! Real Hip! - His pet cat...... But Scott can't play rock or blues! What? He can! Dang! - A jealous guy at a local blues jam...... Scott's playing really pays homage to all the greats from Coltrane to Zamfir - His grandma...... Daddy! - His daughter...... I wish I could play jazz like Scott instead of my lameass harmonically challanged jive BS! - Kenny G...... The best unknown guitarist in the Milky Way! - His mother...... Scott has great licks and great technique! - His wife
