   About Hilary Scott
Hilary Scott tours nationally and internationally as a singer-songwriter, pianist, guitarist, and violinist. Hilary weaves lyrical and musical tapestries with a raw emotional edge. Jeff Dame of Northeast In-Tune has said this about Hilary and her music: "Hilary has the potential to be as big as the likes of Alanis Morisette, Tori Amos, or Sheryl Crow. Listen to her now and you can 'I've been in from the beginning.'

Hilary started her solo performance career in Seattle in 1999, but moved to Columbia, Missouri in 2000, where she formed The Hilary Scott Band. She and her band have toured the midwest and beyond, opening for artists such as Beth Orton, Jonatha Brooke, Little Feat, and Tanya Tucker. Hilary's music is comfortably chameleon-like, inspired by a fresh and unique mix of blues, folk, rock, classical, and country. Comparisons offered when people speak of Hilary's sound range from Joan Baez to Billie Holiday. This delicious ambiguity might result from Hilary's various and sundry influences, which include Led Zeppelin, Peter Gabriel, Sarah McLachlan and Nick Drake. Regardless of this mix of inspirations, Hilary's sound remains truly her own. Hannah Vogel of the Sandpoint Reader writes: "[Hilary] is uniquely herself, in her music and onstage. From coffee shops, to blues houses and festivals, wherever she goes, she and her music are genuine. It's not often you meet a musician you might also like to have as a best friend."

In 2004, Hilary began working with Nashville producer Matthew Wilder to help carry her songs into the radio realm, releasing an EP entitled, 'Out of the Wilderness.' These songs have been well-received by both fans and radio. After receiving a copy of ‘Out of the Wilderness’, John Kulidas of WCSU (Chicago State University) said: "Hilary's in our rotation and we're definitely looking at her as an up-and-comer. Just the other day one of my colleagues was asking me, 'where are all the Carol Kings nowadays'? Well....here you go!"

After signing a publishing deal with Matthew Wilder in 2005, Hilary had the opportunity to write with 'Nashville royalty' such as John Goodwin and Angela Kaset, collaborating on songs that dip into different genres such as dance/techno, and pop. She is currently collaborating on a project with legendary songwriter, Keith Colley.

In 2007, Hilary moved back to her native Washington State. Discovered on My Space by agent Vanessa Feltner of Premier Talent International, Hilary began extended tours overseas and has so far performed in Vietnam and Korea. Through PTI, Hilary will continue to balance overseas performance with touring in the US, and travels to the Midwest to perform with the Hilary Scott Band several times a year. Hilary also collaborates with other artists, such as the D'Alessio trio in Italy, and Wes Wingate of Hometone Records in Missouri.

Hilary is signed to the independent label Belltown Records, and just released her 7th album, entitled Consonance, which is a collaboration with Wes Wingate, and a joint venture between Belltown Records and Hometone Records. Other Hilary Scott CDs include: Hypothermia, The Floating World, and Come In, Come In: LIVE, Out of the Wilderness, Road to Hope, and The Best of Hilary Scott Live Volume 1.

Have you ever seen a heart break...?
In its moment of greatest grief...
how it trembles and shakes...?

Have you ever seen a soul explode...?
In its moment of greatest loss
how it feels the overload...?

Have you ever seen a world fall apart...?
In its greatest moment of sadness
how it finds out the fragility of the heart...?

I have witnessed an implosion...
which carries a greater tragedy than an explosion... 
where worlds collapse...
in to the soul...
and you lose your whole...

I saw Nada get gunned down...
and as she lay silent on the ground...
Humanity was nowhere to be found...
And when I cried...
My world imploded inside
...

Hi Hilary :)
Courtney is better thankyou.She improved Friday so we had a nice long weekend with Courtney feeling better too.Right now she is reading and then bursting into a song!Its so funny and cute.Alexis just said we should video her singing.Courtney just said for her Xmas play at school this year she will be a star!The play is on the 14th Dec so I have taken the day of work to see it :)
Ya working in London is manic most days and with travelling too leaves me exhausted.I cant wait to get home every day!
Yesterday we got a mention on a big London radio show in the morning(Absolute Radio).It was so funny hearing our names and the DJ sent us a tweet asking us to call him in the studio but we sent him a tweet back saying we were all too shy to speak live on air! LOL
OK Hope you and family are well and having a lovely day.
We want to see Hilary in the UK soon!
HUGS
Karl,Alexis and Courtney

A rose ...
no matter how long it dreams...
can never be...
a willow tree...
Nor the eagles that flies ...high.
can ever become… the sky.

We are what we are...
Why should I expect less or more..?
A window remains a window...
even if it embraces a door...

I do not want you to be...
anything other than what you are...
Be it a balm that heals...
or a knife that scars.

Whether you are summer garden...
or the fragrance that infuses the air...
I don't care...
I just want you to be...you and only you...

Always true to your heart and soul...
Ahhhh...the integrity in being whole...
I just want you to be...
I don't seek the ocean...If you are a sea

I will love you for who you are...
and not what I want you to be...
 But if I ever change my mind...
Dear Heart...that day. Set me free...
let me be....alone
in a world of my shallow own

love u dear hil
