After rocking the world with MTV
hair band Trixter for three
decades, former New Jersey
resident Mark Gus Scott is now
stepping out from behind the
drums to stand center stage for
his lead vocal debut and share
something very special.
Currently, Mark is a rock star
turned adult contemporary solo
artist and he sharing his latest
release, “With You…” This song is
an emotional, passionate, and
heartfelt ballad the likes of which
will never be expected by his
ever-growing constituency of
fans.
“With You…” combines an 80s-
style power ballad piano riff,
symphonic orchestration, and
strong melodic hooks which all
provide a platform for for deep
emotional poetry that truly moves
the soul. Listeners will not be
ready for the soaring and soulful
melodies backed by enormous
angelic background harmonies;
definitely a huge surprise coming
from one of rock’s hardest-hitting
drummers.
I had a blast working this shoot
and Mark shared some really
personal stories, some that I’ll
keep just between us.
The great thing about working
with artists and performers is that
after the dust settles, we’re able to
keep in touch and stay friends.
And this is so true with Mark. Here
are some of the personal things
that I can share in this short
interview. Enjoy!
