Washington, DC soul/pop artist and bassist Eric Scott has toured internationally as a solo artist and sideman, sharing the stage with B.B. King, Mavis Staples, Aaron Neville, and many more. Recent collaborations include a stint as a vocalist for the Wounded Warriors MusiCorps Band with Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters. He is a 15-time Wammie winner (Washington Area Music Association), and his music has been featured on ABC-TV, Showtime, Cinemax, The WB, as well as several major motion pictures. His voice has been featured in ad campaigns for HGTV, NAT GEO, Ford, Chevy, Jeep, Chrysler, DC Lottery, and many more.
He will release his fifth CD THE CHARM CITY SESSIONS at Blues Alley on his own Itzall Goode Music label. Calling his new music “Modern Soul,” Scott’s music continues to evolve, yet remains funky, upbeat, soulful, and socially aware. He is unafraid of a pop hook, and his gospel and soul drenched voice remains front and center. As a live performer, he brings it every night. Says Scott, “I want to get booty’s movin’...and get people thinking about the world we live in."
His band will feature stellar DC musicians Dan Leonard (guitar), Deren Blessman (drums), Benjie Porecki (keys), and Eddie Montalvo (percussion).
