A dynamic and highly creative bassist from Canada, Scott began playing and singing rock n roll at a young age but turned to jazz and classical music by his late teens. After years of study at various institutions including Banff School of Fine Arts, McGill University and with celebrated teachers such as Dave Holland and Joel Quarrington, he toured much of the world with a gypsy swing ensemble. This led to other jazz/folk crossover projects, including stints with traditional Rumanian and Russian ensembles. He has recorded with everyone from Vancouver's infamous NOW free jazz ensemble to techno gurus Mouse on Mars (playing cello and violin as well) not to mention numerous original projects. He is currently musical director and bassist for a circus cabaret in Berlin, as well as providing compositional direction and great grooves for friedsitar.
