Closing Weekend Pre-Party for Dwayne Dopsie & the Zydeco Hellraisers / Sally Baby’s Silver Dollars
For more than half a century, Scott Alexander has been playing and singing blues and roots rock ’n’ roll, seasoned with New Orleans R&B. Over the years, he has shared the stage with artists such as Taj Mahal, Clarence “Gatemouth” Brown, Roomful of Blues, and Chuck Leavell, and appeared on early recordings by Tinsley Ellis and the Heartfixers. In the 1980s, Scott founded the Night Flight All Stars, which later evolved into the Savannah All Stars. Today, he reunites with veterans from that original group—bassist Mike Perry and drummer Jesse Jordan—to form Rockin’ Scott & the Hot Shots. Together they serve up a lively musical gumbo, joined for this special SMF appearance by guitarist Gordon Perry.
