About Scott
Scott is an instrumental guitarist, composer and producer. His style of play is bluesy,
aggressive 80's type instrumental metal and hard rock. He just happens to do his playing sitting down due to being diagnosed as having muscular dystrophy in 1987. His talent and upbeat outlook on life, despite his hardships come from his faith in God.

Scott prefers Ibanez guitars and V Amp processors in his music composing
and production.
Scott's influences include Joe Satriani, Eddie Van Halen, Tom Scholz, Ace
Freeley, and Neal Schon.
History
Scott started playing guitar at 16. He stayed with one band during the 80's and 90's, Blue Collar - who played in and around Nashville, Tennessee.
After his diagnosis, Scott continued to play with the band. At first, using a
cane, and later a walker to get to a stool on stage to play. As the disease
progressively got worse, he finally gave in and was placed in a wheelchair. At
that point, playing music was over for the guitar hero from Nashville, though
his love of music never left him.
Fortunately, in 2002 Scott put his guitar back in his hands, and
started playing as though he had never stopped. Which leads us to today where
the world is a better place with Scott's music in it again.
Future Goals
With Scott's limitations, playing live is really out of the question. But in his studio in
Nashville, TN, he is able to write, record, and publish music. These resources enable Scott to collaborate with other musicians around the
world.
"Scott Landers should be on the short list of people to call to add explosive electric
guitar solos to other people’s tracks." says Joseph McCombs of
StarPolish.
