"Scot Crandal is without question one of the most accomplished musicians in the Northwest. With technique honed by years of classical training and unfailingly sensitive musical instincts, his pianism and vocalism fuse into one expressive utterance which envelops the listener and leaves one truly knowing how great this most American of art forms is.” -Linda Brice, founder, Transformational Voice Institute
