Darrell Scott - on the fringe of Nashville

Darrell Scott should be a lot more famous.

I found out about Darrell Scott while I was wandering though my favourite download site emusic.com. I came upon his collaboration with Tim O'brien - a cd called Real Time. It includes a version of Long Time Gone which, I learned, Scott wrote and was a big hit for the Dixie Chicks. Great tune - great songwriter.

Darrell Scott is a powerful musical spirit. A Grammy-nominated artist, an award-winning songwriter, and a first-call session musician, living and working (literally and figuratively) on the fringes of Nashville’s Music Row, Scott occupies his own unique half-acre in this city’s crowded musical landscape. In a town that’s got pigeonholing down to an art, Darrell Scott stands out as a refreshingly mischievous artist.
