Scott was born in West Texas in 1970, but he has been in or around Austin for the last 15 years. His music is generally acoustic, but his songwriting crosses genre lines ranging from Alt Country and Americana to Rock.
In 2006, Scott moved to the Northwest. He currently lives in Hood River, Oregon where he is playing at the Full Sail Brewery, Horse and Hound Pub, Harvestfest, and other private and public engagements, including ones in Portland and throughout the Pacific Northwest.
Normally a solo artist, Scott plays both 6 and 12 string acoustic guitars, harmonica, and sings his own songs, although he is currently working to develop the Scott Sparks Band. He is a prolific writer with a ton of originals. His songs are genuine and captivating. Scott continues to win fans over everywhere he plays because of the songs, his strong voice, and guitar style. He is oft compared to James McMurtry and Johnny Cash because of his low baritone voice and acoustic presentation.
