musicfog.com Darrell Scott breaks through on "River Take Me" during his Music Fog session in Nashville. Recorded during the 2010 Americana Music Festival & Conference.
most singers/artists get famous after much money and time is invested into them with media, marketing, and distribution deals that they trade for their own rights and oftentimes heavy commitments
I find Darrell's guitar work way beyond accompaniment. It's almost like a duet with his voice and the voice of his guitar. I just love this guys guitar work.
saw him at the bluebird cafe in nashville years ago and he absolutely blew the roof off the place with just his guitar and voice. unbelievable superhuman talent.
I saw Darrell Scott this past July. Front row, center. He played this one. I melted in my seat and all I could say was "Dang". I have never seen anyone squeeze so much sound out a guitar, not to mention a voice that defies gravity. When the concert was over he went to the product table and met people like an old fashion Baptist preacher. He talked to everyone who waited in line to see him. He was just the sweetest most humble man.
Darrell Scott is a musical genius. Through his haunting yet inviting voice and beautiful guitar work, Scott weaves layered and emotional stories. He will take you on a journey that leaves you wanting more, or at least another listen. Some journeys are happier than others but they are always worth it. He accomplishes this (often) difficult task while respecting his audience, unlike so many artists today. It is crazy how talented this man is. I hope more people experience his masterful storytelling and musician prowess. Thank you, Mr. Scott. Thank you. I look forward to seeing you play in person, one day.
Loraenil Don't be disappointed. People always choose the easier option - Whether it's easy to digest music like Nicki or easy to digest food like McDonalds. Just be glad that you see the light.
Pure soul and songsmith, a troubadour is this man. I feel very blessed and fortunate to have discovered him. Hopefully I will be able to witness a live performance in my lifetime.
I must have been under a rock. How could I have missed this man? The depth in his songs haunt me in my sleep. Even more in the dead of night. I’ve been properly schooled. Wonderful songwriter seems too shallow for him.
This song speaks to me deep inside my heart an soul! Beautiful song. I've always been an artist myself. I sing , write poems stories songs, take pictures, work with clay. I've always been a story teller an have had soul & wisdom beyond my years. I'm a cancer survivor an have been faced with death many times in 30 years of life. An i wouldn't go back in time to change a thing. Sometimes you were meant to fall on your face in order to rebuild yourself better than before. God is always there for you even if you don't acknowledge him. For many years I let my emotional an physical pain win but no more. I would be better than before. I made up my mind to learn how to play the guitar so I'm starting to look out for a lefty acoustic that I can afford. Then I will record an put up videos of my own songs that I've written. Thank you Darrell Scott for your music an inspiration. One of the first songs I'm going to learn on the guitar is this one.
Experience the Darrell Scott magic at a local outdoor concert a few weeks ago here in Overton County, Tennessee. Not many performers can hold an audience in the palm of his hands as the temperature dipped into the low 40's. Thanks too to Hippie Jack Stoddart, a champion of Americana music.
... JUST DISCOVERED DARRELL AND AM SOOOOOOO INSPIRED !!!! WOW !!! .......... I'm going to have so much fun studying and swooning to this guys talent. Thank you God for showing me how incredible human beings can be.....
Real talent that has me in aw writing, vocals, playing, Just incredible. If I could play like this I wouldn't care about anything but letting people hear it.
@unclebobunclebob - could not agree more. but i'm a little glad the radio hasn't gotten hold of him and rammed in down our throats 85 times a day....that's what makes him a hidden gem to me.
A man and his guitar !!! Anything added to this, wrather it be percussion, piano, string bass or whatever, would take from the full experience and purity of this !!! Master musician? YES! Master musician capable of touching the emotions of his listeners? ABSOLUTELY YES!!!
I’ve been following Darryl for quite sometime now. He gave them attention through the transatlantic sessions he was on session 3 with them O’Brien and a bunch of other brilliant musicians from Scotland Ireland and Nashville. Since then I’ve seen him four times here in Montana I’ve recorded every concert.
Holy Shmoley. This guy bobs and weaves with more fluidity than Sugar Ray. He is constantly taking unexpected turns, going where he is not expected to go. I love this music, madly inspiring.
I've only recently heard of Darrell Scott, what an outstanding talent he is,this is better than finding gold. How wonderful it is to sit here in Ireland and watch a master musician/singer/songwriter, I'm wondering is there Irish or Scottish blood in this man. I could listen to this guy all night long.
