• BIO:
WELCOME BLUES LOVERS! Thanks for visiting our website. We are acoustic blues & roots artists combining 100 years of musicianship, Don Scott and Rosanne Licciardi. We play blues, swing, jazz, funk and zydeco around the US, Ireland, and Mexico (where we've been playing standing gigs for the past 10 years).
With Scott on guitar, national resonator, rack harmonica and vocals, and Rosanne on 3 cajons, foot bass and a highhat, we get a full band sound with just two people. Our repertoire includes over 400 songs including 32 originals. Scott was recently inducted into the Minnesota Blues hall of Fame, October 17, 2021 with a medal for Best Performer!
Scott, a disabled Vietnam Veteran, has three cassette recordings with his band, the Dust Bowl Blues Band plus 8 solo CD's to his credit, garnering a Minnesota Music award for best blues recording in 1997, an IBC nomination in Memphis for the best blues recording from the Minnesota Blues Society in 2013. In a career spanning over 50 years, he has shared the stage with Lazy Bill Lucas, Mighty Joe Young, Pinetop Perkins and the Legendary Blues Band, James Harmon, Janiva Magness, Rusty Zinn, William Clarke and countless others. He has toured the country and Europe performing in France, Ireland, Amsterdam, Scotland, England and Mexico.
Percussionist, Licciardi, Classically-trained pianist; From Mozart to Motown and World music, she created a soiree to celebrate African and Third World music, earning her acclaim for being 10 years ahead of time on the music scene. Rhythm was her life, so was travel, and after soaking up blues and jazz in Amsterdam and Montreal, and funk in New Orleans, she began to play her own percussion. The couple met in New Orleans in 2012 and formed a duo in 2014.
