After a childhood of exposure to country, '50's rock and roll, and Southern gospel,
Scott Holt found religion when he heard Jimi Hendrix. He didn't start playing guitar until he was 19, but, inspired by Stevie Ray Vaughn, he caught on quickly. Before striking out as a solo artist, Holt served a 10-year apprenticeship under blues icon Buddy Guy. Now he leads the Scott Holt Band, fronting his trio as he sings and plays.
