Scott Nolan is a Canadian singer-songwriter, musician, producer, and poet based in Winnipeg, Canada.
Early life[edit]
Nolan was born in Toronto 16 December 1974 to 'Doc' and Darlene. The Nolan family moved to Winnipeg when Scott was an infant. He grew up in Winnipeg's Charleswood neighbourhood, sometimes referred to as the 'Suburb Beautiful'. Nolan first began playing music with school friends.
Music career[edit]
In the late 1990s, Nolan performed in Winnipeg bands Leaderhouse and Motel 75.[1] In 2001 Nolan recorded, produced, and self-released his first album under his own name, Postcards. In the years since, Nolan has released multiple albums as well as toured, co-written, and produced for/with many others.
The Transistor 66 Years[edit]
Nolan signed with Winnipeg-based Transistor 66 Record Company in 2004. Under that label, "No Bourbon and Bad Radio" was released in 2005. "Receiver/Reflector", co-produced by Texas musician Gurf Morlix, was released in in 2007. Americana artist Hayes Carll[2] recorded the song "Bad Liver and a Broken Heart" from the 'Receiver/Reflector' album on his 2008 album "Trouble in Mind".
Nolan released "Montgomery Eldorado" in 2011, notable for it's cover art - a portrait of Scott painted by Kellesimone Waits, daughter of musicians Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan.[3]
"Silverhill" was released In 2015. It was recorded in Silverhill, Alabama with Roots band Willie Sugarcapps (Will Kimbrough, Grayson Capps, Anthony Crawford, Corky Hughes, and Savana Lee).[4][5] [6] The album includes three co-written songs, including: "When You Leave This World" - co-written with Hayes Carll, "Trouble and Love" - co-written with Mary Gauthier,[2] and "One Little Spark" - co-written with Jaida Dreyer.
The Suburb Beautiful (2022)[edit]
Nolan, together with Genie award-winning and Juno award nominated Winnipeg-based new music composer Glenn Buhr released "The Suburb Beautiful" in 2022. The album contained new, orchestral, arrangements of Nolan's music as an ode to Winnipeg.[7][8]
Before Tonight (2023)[edit]
Nolan released "Before Tonight" in December 2023. The original working title for the album was "West of the Don" - a line from the song 'Cabbagetown' on the album. However, friend and fellow musician, William Prince, suggested resequencing the album and changing the album title to 'Before Tonight'.
Performing[edit]
Nolan toured extensively in the early 2000s but less so in later years as producing albums became his focus.
Nolan has performed with many well-known musicians, including: Fred Eaglesmith, Roger Marin, Serena Ryder, Hayes Carll, Mary Gauthier, Adam Carroll, James McMurtry, Samantha Crain, Lynn Miles, Charlie Parr, The Mavericks, James Keelaghan, Mark Jungers, William Prince, Big Dave McLean, and Joe Nolan.[9] Nolan has also toured for Home Routes/Chemin Chez Nous, a concert touring network founded by Mitch Podolak, founder of the Winnipeg Folk Festival.
