Born in St. Petersburg, FL, on Christmas Day, 1984 bassist Kevin Scott hails from Dothan, AL, the peanut capital of the world. Kevin was born into a very musical family that has supported and nurtured his talent from the beginning. Kevin was attached to his bass all through high school and was active in the Alabama music scene. In 2001, Kevin was awarded a scholarship to the International Association of Jazz Educators summer program in New Orleans. Here, Kevin studied under and played with the great New Orleans drummer, Johnny Vidachovich and New Orleans bassist Jesse Boyd. In search of broader musical pastures, Kevin settled in Atlanta, GA, at the age of 19. He soon was caught up in the music scene in the city and became a bass player of great demand. Kevin tours and records with the group Highly Kind, who was recently recorded by producer Johnny Sandlin. Kevin also hosts the open jam at the 5 Spot on Tuesday nights. Some of the groups/players that have sought him out include: Oteil Burbridge, Col. Bruce Hampton, Jimmy Herring, Jeff Sipe, Ike Stubblefield, Grant Green Jr, Bryan Lopes, Yonrico Scott, The Sixes, the Sid Wolf Band, The David Springer Quartet, Kenny Heard, Jacob Deaton and the Collective, The Apositles, Adian Ash Group, the Anton Harris Quartet, Big Shanty, The Big Tasties..etc etc
The Five Spot has become a staple of music and arts in the heart of Little Five Points in Atlanta, Ga. From an intercontinental selection of more than 100 beers to their art-laden walls, there is something at the Five Spot for everyone. The kitchen features a gourmet style deli menu including sandwiches, salads, quesadillas and nachos with many vegetarian and vegan options.
