Born in West Virginia and raised on the Canadian prairies, Scott Cook quit a job teaching kindergarten in Taiwan in 2007 to embark on the life of a full-time troubadour. Since then he's toured almost incessantly across Canada, the US, Europe, Asia, Australia, New Zealand and elsewhere, living out of backpacks and campervans, averaging over a hundred shows and a dozen summer festivals a year, and distilling his experiences into empathetic, keenly observant verse. 

Scott has completed ten tours of Australia already, including talked-about performances at Woodford, Port Fairy, Cobargo, Candelo, Cygnet, Healesville, Mullumbimby, Newstead, Kangaroo Valley, Dorrigo, Maldon, Illawarra, the National, and Yackandandah folk festivals, and recorded his seventh album Tangle of Souls in Trentham, Victoria with an intercontinental stringband called Scott Cook and the She'll Be Rights. 

The collection comes packaged in a cloth-bound, 240-page hardcover book of road stories and ruminations with gum leaf prints by Healesville artist Cecilia Sharpley. The album spent two weeks at #1 back home on Alberta's province-wide community radio network CKUA, and earned Scott his third Canadian Folk Music Award nomination, for English Songwriter of the Year.

Its second single "Say Can You See" was the second most-played song of 2020 on Folk Alliance International's folk radio charts, and took top honours for the folk category in both the 2020 UK Songwriting Competition and the 2020 Great American Song Contest. He’s been back on the road full-time since January of 2022, living in a campervan named Roadetta with his sweetheart Pamela Mae on upright bass and vocals, and recording his eighth album Troubadourly Yours. 

In 2025 he's bringing the new album to Australia and reuniting with acclaimed Australian bassist and longtime collaborator Liz Frencham and other Australian comrades to record another album of roots and bluegrass originals as Scott Cook and the Little Rippers. As always, these are sturdy, straight-talking songs that see the good in you.

"He sings his heart and soul, and in doing so lets light flood into your own... He has a good eye for imagery, a gentle human touch, a wry sense of humour, a whole lot of integrity, a warm, rugged voice and a bunch of memorable lines... Truly one of Woody Guthrie's children." –RnR Magazine
