Scott's abilities on the saxophone have impressed everyone who has heard him.

He has been performing professionally for seventeen years, in ensembles ranging from symphony orchestras, to big bands, to small jazz groups, to rock and R&B jobbing bands.

Scott produced his own CD "Face It" with the Scott Marshall trio, as well as co-produced and music directed Lyne Tremblay's release "Break and Enter".

The CD "Face It" features Scot on saxophone and clarinet, Wes Neal on bass, and Marcel Aucoin, piano. It includes several of Scott's original compositions "Long September", "Cuban Phone Crisis", "Wait...I'm Here!" and "Later that Same Evening", as well as "Inside the Bottle" by Wes Neal, and other selections by Jerome Kern, Duke Ellington and Joe Henderson.
