Amina Scott is an upright and electric bassist, composer, and arranger. While rooted in the tradition of Black American Music, Scott’s influences range from Ron Carter to J Dilla to traditional New Orleans music. She combines these various facets of Black Music to create stories about her own life that she shares in hopes of connecting all that she meets with one another. Currently based in New Orleans, Amina leads her own band and she has performed with various artists including Dee Dee Bridgewater, Steve Turre, Wessell, Nicholas Payton, David Murray, Jamison Ross, Joanne Brackeen, Herlin Riley, and more.
