The Incredible Scotty Anderson

Unknown to the public, Scotty Anderson has a global following with guitarists, thanks largely to sound and video downloads on the Web.  The late Chet Atkins once quipped, “Scotty plays Chet Atkins better than I do.”  For 30 years, Scotty’s blistering country-rock technique has drawn the praises of such guitarists as Brian Setzer, Eric Johnson, John5, Lonnie Mack, James Burton, and the late Danny Gatton.  A Kentucky boy who grew up in a family of mountain pickers, Scotty shies away from touring opportunities, but attracts the faithful where he’s most at home - in small bars and outdoor venues around Cincinnati, Ohio.
