This concert is the North Carolina Symphony debut for Scott Coulter.

Scott Coulter is one of New York’s most honored vocalists (five MAC Awards, five Bistro Awards, and two Nightlife Awards for Outstanding Vocalist).

He's performed at most of NYC’s top rooms including Birdland, 54 Below, the Oak Room at the Algonquin, and Feinstein’s at Loews Regency—where he spent a record-setting eight months performing the revue 11 O’Clock Numbers at 11 O’Clock which he also co-created, directed, and musically arranged. His self-titled debut CD won the 2003 MAC Award for Outstanding Recording and was chosen as the best recording of the year by TheatreMania and Cabaret Scenes magazines. He was director and star of A Christmas Carol: The Symphonic Concert in its world premiere with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra. He’s an Emmy nominee for American Song and star of the Emmy Award-nominated A Christmas Carol (PBS), and appears on the Grammy-nominated Sondheim Unplugged: The NYC Sessions (Best Traditional Pop Album).

Coulter regularly performs in concert both as a solo artist and with a variety of performers including Sheena Easton and Academy Award-winning composer Stephen Schwartz. Schwartz has said “One of the greatest things that can happen to a composer is to have his music interpreted by Scott Coulter.”

Coulter is creator, arranger, and director of several touring shows for symphonies and performing arts centers as owner/founder of Spot-On Entertainment, including Music of the Knights, The Wonderful Music of Oz, Blockbuster Broadway!, and, for The ASCAP Foundation, Jerry Herman: The Broadway Legacy Concert. Along with Michael Kerker and ASCAP, he's a regular producer/director of Michael Feinstein's Standard Time at Carnegie Hall. He recently wrote the book for the new musical Got to Be There, which celebrates the life and music of songwriter Elliot Willensky, and along with Dave Gaebler, is a co-producer of the Jessica Hendy/Brianna Barnes musical Walking with Bubbles (Drama Desk nominee and Off-Broadway Alliance Award winner.) The show's cast album is produced by Scott Coulter and Vibecke Dahle Dellapolla. Coulter and Gaebler are also on the producing teams of the Broadway musicals Water for Elephants and Suffs (Tony Awards for Book and Score).

Coulter is founder and owner of Spot-On Entertainment and Spot-On Arts Academy and is a resident director of programming at 54 Below (Broadway’s Supper Club) in NYC. He is the Artistic Director of the Pocono Mountains Music Festival and founder of the Pocono Pops! He’s a graduate of the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, which honored him with the CCM Young Alumni Award (2010) and CCM’s Distinguished Service Award (2020).
