   About Skott Freedman
Skott's fifth album, "The Cottage Sessions", is now available online from iTunes, Amazon, eMusic, etc. Featuring original material for the first time in 6 years, Freedman returns to his bare roots of stunning vocals, intricate piano work, and an umistakable lyrical style that captures everyday emotions in almost shocking clarity.

Skott's chilling rendition of The Cranberries' "Zombie" is now available on iTunes and other online music retailers.

once upon a time a boy found he had no words left to express the dwellings within. too much pain, too much sadness. there was only one who understood: a small, upright piano tucked away in the living room that hadn't been played in years. a bond was immediately forged and thus began the lifelong romance of a boy and his piano.

twenty years later skott freedman has composed some of the most beautiful, inspiring music that critics have heard in recent times. billboard magazine hailed him as a "star-in-waiting" and with 4 albums already under his belt, it's only a matter of time before skott's music is known globally.

unimpressed by the musical masochism that has swallowed up the industry, skott's music is stark in its simplicity yet always resonating to the listener's core. from subjects as heavy as losing a loved one to recovering from a broken heart, to the new found joys of a reunited family and forgiving oneself, skott's music is accessible to anyone with an open heart and mind. with the voice of an angel and the piano skills of a madman, skott invites the listener in, tells a story, and gently shuts the door again.

listen for yourself and see why fans have been moved to tears for over a decade.

I agree completely. I was so disheartened when I heard about 8 passing. especially after the Obama win news had lifted my spirits.

are you recording new material in San Diego or East Coast. There's a BOMBASS studio in Los Angeles owned by Gene Simmon's former drummer. Amazing. I recorded there with Leah Andreone.
If you wanna stick with West Coast this time to get a different feel I can get you the info. And let them know about you. Their engineers are incredible too.
Love ya man. Maybe I'll run into you someday soon with both of us still in SD.

Hi Scott you have helped me through a tough time in my life and you have never known, so here now you do.
Thanks for coming out to Australia and playing @ the Market Hotel in Melbourne. I lost my dad a few months after seeing you there and the CD I bought after the show was what helped me out.
Some say when loosing a loved one you will find a song that reminds you of them and will embody all your feeling @ that time. Well I know that to be true now, cause my Dad was the first person I had lost that was close to me. I used to say to all my friends I can never be truly sad cause I have so much in my life and don't really have a right to be down considering I can SEE and FEEL and TALK and also WALK so what could I possibly be sad about at the end of the day! Well I still smile alot and laugh when ever I can and even when I feel I can't I try to cause I still have so much in my life I can do and see and be happy about. So back to your help Scott.
I went to my dads funeral and for the life of me did not remember any of the songs played that day but I remembered listening to your album when I arrived home in tears just wanting my dad back, and every day after that that I have listened to your album I cry like it's that same very day we said goodbye to him. Please know that it brings me joy listening to it still today. A weird joy that makes me feel closer to my dad and allows me to not bottle up the emotion and allows me to let it out like I am doing now. tears in my eyes and a feeling of slight sadness for now it has been 3 years and now I want him back more than ever. I love you for what you have brought me Scott and for that I thank you from the depths of my heart
Love Guy O'thomas Davenport xoxo

happy new year buddy. I want to hear that your love is alike a bandaid song. I keep singing just that part over and over again then resorting to mumble everything else. I got Walter off of Itunes and I pretend everytime it comes on that you're doing it live. haha
