CMA "Who To Watch"
Alongside Gretchen Wilson, Big and Rich, Sugarland, Miranda Lambert, Danielle Peck, Scotty Emerick, Blue County, Julie Roberts, and Mindy Smith, Scott has been selected by the Country Music Association (CMA) as a country "Who To Watch" artist in their CMA Closeup magazine. He is the only artist on the list without a big record deal!

"If you're in the mood for hot guitar pickin', killer melodies, vivid imagery and a sweet but gritty vocal performance-- And you're a fan of Joe Ely and Kevin Welch--check out Make Ready. Scott's an introspective Austin-based singer-songwriter. With this outstanding effort he also dabbles -- quite effectively-- in honky-tonk, blues and bluegrass. Don't miss the peppy "Sunday Social."
-Country Music Today magazine

"Make Ready is one of the most auspicious debuts I've heard in many a year. Gibson offers invention, emotional subtlety and lyrical depth, as well as a surfeit of hooks in the ten self-penned songs...Scott Gibson is a rare find...Seek the CD out and enjoy."

"..."I Believe" recalls Joe Ely at his punchiest, while "Sunday Social" could be Guy Clark at his breeziest. And it wouldn't be a stretch to mistake "The Hardest Part of Hurtin' (Is The Hope)" as a stray from the catalogue of the grand elder, Willie Nelson. If you're walking in the footsteps of giants, you better have some big-shoe songs. Gibson...shows up packing size 16s."
-No Depression magazine

“...so impressive it's almost baffling... The integrity of the Americana music scene's future is assured with the arrival of Scott Gibson's 'Make Ready.' Gibson's lyrics are honest and simple, and his voice gives one the comfortable feeling of reaching the city limits sign of a long-missed hometown.”
-Texas Music Express

Make Ready, is now receiving airplay worldwide. The album features:
