  • HSAY 016 - Scott Isbell - Professional Pop Singer | Viral Social Media Sensation Background: “It was like my internet existence was completely erased" At the age of 4, Isbell became enamored with the rhythm and soul portrayed by an Elvis impersonator. Inspired by the performance, he began to emulate his new-found hero, Elvis Presley through his songs. As he grew, he discovered another King of Pop, Michael Jackson, who fueled Isbell’s curiosity to performing arts, setting his sights high on music. At 12, Scott competed in USA’s Most Talented Kids. Influenced by his heroes and other legends such as James Brown, Isbell was seen as a natural on stage where his signature old Soul of new Pop style began to take shape. Without an agent or managers and pushed by his desire to perform, Isbell also landed professional acting roles in both TV and film.  However, singing became Isbell’s way to creatively channel the frustrations of living with ADHD. His passion for music helped him focus on developing his vocal intensity, fueling his soulful sound. Isbell has performed at venues across the United States, including The MGM Grand, Hard Rock Cafés, Disney World, and Foxwoods Resort and Casino. An avid fan of professional wrestling, Isbell also performs at professional wrestling events alongside WWE superstars.  During the summer of 2014 and 2015, Isbell toured and opened for Wu-Tang Clan legend, Cappadonna, and other artists such as Spliff Star (Busta Rhymes), Ne-Yo, Inspectah Deck, Bricksquad, Young Dirty Bastard, and more. Today, Scott Isbell is taking his musical ambitions to the next level, studying at the world-renowned Berklee College of Music and now at Emerson College. Scott Isbell’s most viral campaign to date has been his hit song Trumpified, which has surpassed 46 million plays and has reached number 2 in the world on the Soundcloud charts, number 1 on the Pop charts on Soundcloud, and reached number 97 on the iTunes Hot 100 charts.
