Scott Chasolen is a New York City based pianist/keyboardist, songwriter, composer, vocalist, multi-instrumentalist and music producer.

Scott’s music career began when he was a teenager playing clubs in New York City. By his early twenties he was working toward a degree in jazz performance at New School University while maintaining a hectic schedule creating, recording and touring relentlessly with his landmark jazz/funk group ulu. Between 1998 and 2003 ulu played over a thousand shows and released 4 albums: ulu (1998), Live at the Wetlands (2000), What’s the Deal (2001) and Nerve (2003). Along the way, ulu shared the stage with John Scofield, The Dirty Dozen Brass Band, De La Soul, the Mickey Hart Band, Moe., Soulive, and Jazz Is Dead to name a few.

For over fifteen years Scott has been performing across the country and around the world as the keyboardist and backing vocalist for the highly acclaimed Pink Floyd tribute band, The Machine. On stage Scott masterfully recreates the sounds of Pink Floyd’s Richard Wright with his own infectious energy and improvisational nuance. Endorsed by Moog, his live rig includes a Minimoog Voyager, Rhodes electric piano, Hohner Clavinet and a Hammond organ that he plays through a Leslie cabinet. Thus, proving himself to be a complete analog gear geek!

Although The Machine is Scott’s main touring gig, he also plays with the well known Chicago tribute band, Beginnings, yacht rock specialists AM Gold, psychedelic jammers The Englishtown Project, among many others…

Scott is also an accomplished singer/songwriter. Since 2003, he has released 6 albums of original music: Solitude Speaks (2003), Woven (2005), Magnify (2007), Fracture (2010), Portrait (2013) and Living In Limbo (2019). June 3, 2022 marks the release of his 7th album, Just Another Dream.

Between shows Scott works in the studio as a freelance session musician and songwriter for hire. Trusted by a variety of notable artists and producers, he has helped write and record hundreds of songs and appears on dozens of albums.
