Scott Youngberg
Scott Youngberg is an acoustic solo artist based out of Islamorada, in the Florida Keys. He travels regularly up to Miami and down to Key West. His show features a widely varied playlist mixing original songs with select cover tunes and popular songs. Originally from Chicago, he keeps moving farther and farther South. Scott got his start in the Chattanooga music scene first "working the door" for The Handy Award-winning "Blues Doctor," Russell Linnemann and The Travelling Riverside Blues Caravan, then playing clubs and festivals. He's been performing at clubs, resorts, weddings and parties full time in the Keys since 1997, where he's recorded and produced his first CD, "Live At Sunset."
During The Keys' Off-Season Scott can be found floating with Suzi (his wife and co-writer), on the Florida Bay in their boat "SerenityNow."
Cover selections include songs from artists such as Paul Simon, James Taylor, Neil Young, Cat Stevens, Crosby, Stills and Nash, The Beatles, and many one-hit wonders. Acoustic selections by Jimmy Hendrix, Led Zepplin, Bruce Springsteen, The Who, Pink Floyd, and The Rolling Stones make for a harder, more energetic set. Expect popular dance tunes and Jimmy Buffett songs at your request. More recent selections include Counting Crows, Matchbox 20, Dave Matthews, Sister Hazel and Greenday.
