Give It To Me Good!
Give It To Me Good! Year: 2020 Genre: Country
After the success of his vocal debut, "With You", Mark Gus Scott kicks down the door to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Trixter's biggest #1 MTV Hit! "Give It To Me Good" re-releases on Thursday, May 14th but this time, Mark takes it one step further. "I remember the first time I heard the guitar riff and all of the energy of the song came rushing through me. I couldn't control myself!" exclaims Mark. That song went on to be a #1 Hit for Eight Weeks Straight… “Now that’s a party!" HYPER-LINK: http://markgusscott.com/ The new rendition of “Give It To Me Good” is electrifying and groovy, exhibiting a new sound that Mark calls "Power Country", a mix of hard rock and country music. Co-Produced by Mr. Scott’s musical ally Lou Piccadaci, the song’s sound production is sonically stellar and takes the listener on a musical journey from country six-string acoustic to a rockin’ powerhouse hoedown that won’t let you quit stomping your feet. Signature melodies can be heard behind Mark’s powerful lead vocal and pulverizing drumbeat to which millions have danced to around the world. Mr. Piccadaci defines his value not only as an engineer, but with his superior guitar performance throughout the track. "For the past few years, I got away from rock ‘n roll and made a lot of music that touched my heart. But one thing is for sure, I miss rocking and nothing is better than playing music that truly drives you and an audience to throw your hands in the air and dance!" "Give It To Me Good" releases Worldwide on Thursday, May 14th. CDs / Downloads are available through Apple iTunes, Amazon Music, Google Music, CD Baby and everywhere downloads are available. Personally Autographed CDs are available for purchase at www.MarkGusScott.com

With You...
With You... Year: 2019 Genre: Other
After Rocking the World with MTV hair band Trixter for three decades, Mark Gus Scott steps out from behind the drums to stand center stage for his lead vocal debut and share something very special. The rock star turned adult contemporary solo artist's latest release "With You..." is an emotional, passionate and heartfelt ballad the likes of which will never be expected by his ever-growing constituency of fans. VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/g8meyHEWl7s “For the past few years, I have pursued music outside of Rock and Roll in hopes of touching just one person. To be on the receiving end of so much love and support from so many around the world is a gift I never expected,” says Scott. "With You..." combines an 80's-style power ballad piano riff, symphonic orchestration and powerful melodic hooks all providing a platform for deep emotional poetry that truly moves the soul. Listeners will not be ready for the soaring and soulful hook-filled melodies backed by enormous “angelic” background harmonies; definitely a huge surprise coming from one of rock's hardest-hitting drummers.
