Steve Scott

Steve Scott is an American musician, producer, and actor from New Jersey.

Steve was raised by his mother in a poor Irish Catholic single-parent-family in Newark, New Jersey. He grew up with his older siblings: John, Walter and Patricia. Steve Scott's interest in music started at an early age, influenced by his family members. Peter De Santa, a guitar teacher, became his mentor and inspiration.

Scott's older brothers are both Marine combat veterans who served in the Marine Corps in Vietnam.

After graduating from high school in Union, New Jersey, where he was nicknamed Lucius by his bluegrass/Deadhead friends, Scott went on to junior college where he studied theatre arts. He was later accepted to the NYU Tisch School of the Arts (Circle in the Square Studios) in Manhattan, where he honed his acting skills. Steve went on to graduate from the University of Arizona (summa cum laude) with a bachelor's degree in history and pre-law, followed by graduate school where he attended Thomas M. Cooley Law School in Lansing, Michigan.

Scott has acted in various productions from Off-Broadway to Europe. As an actor, Steve used the stage name of Lorenzo Wilde.

In 1995, Steve played the role of Captain Pringle in Soldato Ignoto ("Unknown Soldier"), an Italian film directed by Marcello Aliprandi. In 1996, Scott worked in Celluloide and Daylight. In 1998, he played the role of a cavalry lieutenant in the Western Gunslinger's Revenge. In 2017, Scott was cast in The Bailout, directed by Conall Morrison as Timothy Geithner.

As of 2014[update], Scott was living in his adopted hometown of Detroit. He was originally the lead guitarist of the pop/rock band "The Features". He moved to Michigan to study law, but eventually went back to music. In 2012, Steve formed Steve Scott Country including musicians from the Detroit metropolitan area. Steve Scott Country's Americana/Country sound encompasses blues, rock and country. He wrote tunes interweaving classic pop/rock arrangements and rhythm sections, with traditional bluegrass instrumentation: a sound he and his band call "Rustbelt Country".

2012 Shinin’ Like You Do is Scott's solo debut CD, drawing influences from traditional Americana, including a rootsy cover of Rocky Top. The album includes hard-driving country pop rock, spiritual gospels, blues and cowboy ballads.

This song was inspired by his wife work with the Army STARRS program.

Scott's 2013 album Those Tears I've Cried is the winner of Outstanding Country Recording Detroit Music Awards 2014. The single "I Think About You" won Detroit Music Awards People's Choice Award 2014. The Album reached No. 11 in the Jambands.com/Relix Magazine Radio Chart; No. 30 in the Roots Music Report Americana Album Chart and No. 1 in the Roots Music Michigan Chart.[10] The album blends country with rock and blues overtones.[11] In 2014, Scott went on a tour to promote the CD Those Tears I've Cried throughout Europe.[12][13][14][15]

Scott donates all the net proceeds from the sale of "Have You Ever Known a Soldier?" to Operation Ward 57, Wish for Our Heroes and Until Every Troop Comes Home.[16][17]
