Remarkably versatile, Chicago-based blues/rock guitarist Keith Scott has been working his way methodically up through the blues' ranks since his parents bought him his first guitar at age 14 and his young ears heard Muddy Waters in 1980. Born in White Plains, N.Y., Scott was first exposed to the music of Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin and Grand Funk Railroad. With this sonic baptism, a mind-set and foundation were established for him to explore the realm of blues inhabited by the creme de la creme of Chicago musicians such as Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Jimmy Reed and others in that pantheon. Little did Scott know, however, that he would go on in just a few years to actually play with many of the greats of post-war Chicago blues.
"I was totally blown away," Scott says of first hearing Waters, adding he was lucky enough to meet this master of the Chicago blues in 1980 while living in Florida. "Meeting Muddy Waters really helped in spurring my interest in playing blues. My musician friend opened for Muddy on the campus of the University of Florida at Gainesville and he invited me to come and hang out with him." Scott remembers meeting Waters as being, "overwhelming."
Scott has five solo CDs to his credit, among these, "Heavy Blues," "World Blues" and "Universal Blues." His "Tennessee Blues," released in Fall of 2011, has been reviewed favorably by Living Blues, the world's premier blues magazine. He was also reunited onstage with Dawkins at the 2010 Chicago Blues Festival in front of a crowd of thousands. ~Steve Sharp
