Scott Campbell (born March 17, 1958, in Detroit, Michigan) is an American musician, composer, and actor.

Scott Campbell was born in Detroit, MI. He began writing poetry at the age of six and songs at the age of eight.

He formed Nebula Records in 1972 and released the single Apparition/Astral Spirit in 1973 under the band name Apparition, playing all the instruments on both songs.

Campbell formed The Sillies in 1977, considered one of Detroit's first modern punk rock bands. In March 1978, he began booking and managing Bookie's Club 870, Detroit's first concert nightclub catering to punk and alternative music. The Police, Ultravox, The Damned, John Cale, Peter Hammill, The Cramps, and many other acts made their Detroit debuts at Bookie's.
