DYLAN
SCOTT

Dylan Scott is a relative newcomer to the country music scene, himself, but has
the drive and desire to be on stage ingrained in his blood. His father played
guitar and sang harmony in the 1970s and 1980s with country artists Freddy
Fender and Freddy Hart.
With early inuence by Merle Haggard and George Strait, and claiming the late
Keith Whitley as his musical role model, Scott got an early start on keyboard
and acoustic guitar before hitting the stage during his high school years with
the southern gospel trio 11th Hour. His recent debut album, self-titled Dylan
Scott, features such songs as Makin This Boy Go Crazy,Hurtin In the Morning
and Mmm, Mmm, Mmm.
