Scott
moved to Nashville in the early 1990's. While
there, he opened for Emmylou Harris, Bruan Bowers,
Goose Creek Symphony and Suzy Bogguss. He also
shared the state with Willie Nelson, Lyle Lovett,
Shelby Lynn, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Kathy Mattea
and Henry Gross. Scott was named Grand Prize
winner at the Gumtree Folk Festival, and was a
regular performer at Townes Van Zandt's bar in
Nashville.
Before leaving Nashville and returning home to
Virginia, Scott wrote and produced the songs on
his second album, "Short Stories." Two
of these songs were selected by Virginia-based
DCD Records in 1998 to appear on a compilation of
Shenandoah artists. - Scott Murray on YouTube.

My songs are a moment in
time for me, snapshots taken late nights in living rooms,
warehouses and studios all across Nashville. It has
always been my desire to tell stories and paint pictures
with the words and music I write. These short stories are
from my heart and hands. " - Scott Christopher Murray
