Come up TOP and see Bryan Scott perform solo guitar LIVE from 5:30pm to 9:30pm.
Scott is originally from New Orleans. He has been playing music since he was in his early teens. He was in the Louisiana band Nozmoking, a band that was popular on the Southern college circuit in the late 1990s. They were signed to a small record label, Houston Records.
After Nozmoking, a word play on “no smoking,” Scott began to play acoustic sets in 2002. He has released a full-length solo album, and this is his second time playing the Mariner Grille.
Scott’s influences are The Beatles, Boston and Aerosmith’s Joe Perry, all of which you can hear in his set. Scott played original songs, as well as covers from U2, Gnarls Barkley and Oasis. Scott played in front of a large television screen where a silent Kid Rock sang for a football game.
