Scott Low plays the GRATEFUL BLUES

Scott Low is a Southern songwriter with a bluesman's heart, a folk singer’s storytelling, and a river guide’s patience. His most recent albums—Struttin’ Round Town (2025) and The Appalachian Blues (2024)—dig deep into the soul of the rural South, blending gritty guitar work, slow-burn vocals, and road-worn lyricism. From swaggering blues-rock grooves to stripped-down acoustic confessionals, these records trace a life shaped by heartbreak, resilience, and the crooked backroads of Appalachia.
Having won the 2025 Atlanta Blues Challenge, Scott will feature his new album 'Grateful Blues', as heard on Grateful Dead XM, in its entirety to celebrate the person that Jerry Garcia was.
Listed in the top ten albums for 2025 on the acoustic Blues charts, the album is a modern homage to the crossroads between traditional blues and psychedelic Americana. It reimagines the classic blues numbers often covered by the Grateful Dead, alongside fresh interpretations of Dead originals—blending raw Delta textures with improvisational spirit.
