Bio

Scott Martin has been a finalist at the Telluride Troubadour Contest, a winner at Songwriter Serenade, a finalist at the Wildflower Performing Songwriter contest, and twice a Kerrville New Folk Regional Finalist.  Scott’s record “Missing” was released in 2018, featuring a song cycle about historical missing persons including Amelia Earhart, DB Cooper, Everett Ruess, Virginia Dare and Percy Fawcett.

Scott has toured with Lynda Carter, appearing with her numerous times on the Tonight Show and TV specials, and has worked as a session vocalist in Los Angeles, singing on numerous commercials and TV series. He has opened for Kenny Rankin, Patty Loveless, Jane Fonda, and Chuck Pyle.

Scott's latest record "Corner of the World" was released March 11, 2022. It charted at #21 in the US on the Folk DJ chart and also on the Euro Americana Chart. Musicians from the US and Europe contributed virtually to Martin's tracks that were recorded in Austin starting in March 2020, to which he then added piano, orchestration and other parts to create these perfectly embroidered songs. Martin co-produced the album with Michael Henchman of Vancouver, Washington, who played bass, electric guitar and other instruments on many of the songs.  

Scott is a native of the Pacific Northwest, and has called Austin home for more than 20 years.
