Whether it's rock, folk, country, Darrell Scott, the 4-time Grammy
nominated Nashville songwriter, has written hits for chart-topping
artists like Brad Paisley and the Dixie Chicks to Del McCoury, Sam
Bush and Keb Mo; contributing songs to three of 2016’s best albums
alone. ‘It’s not surprising that Scott wrote nine of the 14 songs
on his own new album, “Couchville Sessions,” and less surprising
that he wrote three songs with the like-minded Americana artist Hayes
Carll on Carll’s magnificent new disc, “Lovers and Leavers,”’
in addition to “1000 Things” from Sarah Jarosz’s award winning
“Build Me Up From Bones” album. What’s more surprising is that
Scott came off of a year and a half of touring in Robert Plant’s
Band of Joy with a co-write on R&B star Anthony Hamilton’s new
recording, “Save Me,” the opening track on “What I’m
Feelin.” Over the past two years Darrell has produced, co-written
and performed on three songs from Zac Brown’s latest project
“Heavy Is the Head,” in addition to producing Jonathan Edwards
latest and Malcolm Holcombe’s upcoming 2017 release, “Pretty
Little Troubles.” But these partnerships all makes sense: Although
they hail from different genres, these artists are master craftsmen at
fitting words to notes.
