Making a Scene Presents Gerry Casey’s Interview with Scott McDonald

Scott McDonald is a singer, guitarist, and songwriter from the Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania whose career has been built on crafting memorable, melody-driven rock and pop songs. His music blends the punch of guitar-powered rock with the warmth of acoustic storytelling, creating a sound anchored in strong hooks, rich harmonies, and emotional authenticity. Whether he’s plugged in or stripped down, Scott’s songwriting always puts melody first while still carrying the energy and attitude of classic rock ’n’ roll.

Throughout his career, Scott has been a dedicated creator—composing, recording, and releasing original music that reflects his love of timeless songwriting. His work spans melodic rock, pop, and acoustic-driven arrangements, but always with a signature focus on vocal harmony and musical craftsmanship. The result is a catalog that is both accessible and deeply personal.

Scott’s talents have earned recognition across his region and beyond. In 2008, he won the Lehigh Valley Acoustic Singer/Songwriter Competition, a testament to both his musicianship and his ability to connect with audiences. His songs have been featured on several radio stations, including WZZO in Allentown, PA, further expanding his reach and solidifying his reputation as an artist with something to say and the skills to back it up.

In addition to his solo work, Scott has explored other creative avenues—co-writing and composing a commercial jingle for Maola Milk, showcasing his versatility as a writer and producer. His latest studio work features an impressive lineup of collaborators including David Anthony (Dennis DeYoung) on drums and Brian Anthony (Steve Walsh) on bass. Their work together on Scott’s newest video release helped bring his songs to a wider audience, contributing to over 21,000 YouTube views across his most recent original videos.

While Scott continues to write and release new material, he is also known nationally for his role in TUSK – The Classic Tribute to Fleetwood Mac, the most acclaimed Fleetwood Mac tribute act in the United States. With TUSK, Scott performs for sold-out audiences across the country, bringing to life the harmonies, guitar work, and spirit of one of rock’s most iconic bands. His work with TUSK not only showcases his vocal and guitar skills, but also places him center stage in one of the premier tribute productions in America.

Whether performing his own music or channeling the legacy of Fleetwood Mac, Scott McDonald remains a dedicated artist grounded in craftsmanship, melody, and performance—an artist whose work resonates with listeners looking for songs that are honest, memorable, and built to last.
