BIOGRAPHY

MARK SCOTT

Former LEAD SINGER OF THE MIRACLES 

 

Mark Scott was the last recording lead singer for the Motown famed singing group The Miracles, touring the world with original member Bobby Rogers for nearly a decade.

       Mark Scott is a native of Flint, Michigan. His first break came with the release of "I Don't Wanna Come Down", featured in the motion picture "Breakin 2 Electric Boogaloo." Mark's 30 year singing career has been heavily influenced by Motown. As a member of the group he had shared the stage with some of the biggest names in the music industry: The Temptations, Martha Reeves, The Contours, Ben E. King, Carl Carlton, Laura Lee, Freda Payne, Mary Wilson (of the Supremes), The Commodores, and The Four Tops.

      Because of his work prior to and with The Miracles, Mark received a Motown Alumni Lifetime Achievement Award in 2013, and later that year received an award from the City of Detroit and the state of Michigan  for his contributions to the music industry. He also received rewards for his musical contributions from Detroit Hot Radio .

      Bobby Rogers chose Mark because his voice was the truest and most notable duplication of the vocal genius of Smokey Robinson. Mark was featured with the group on the PBS' "60's Rock, Pop and Soul" program. He rerecorded with Bobby Rogers on the "Soulful Sound's Of Motown's First Group" in a 10-song DVD/CD by producer TJ Lubinsky.

      In 2013, Bobby Rogers died, Mark is continuing the tradition of the legendary Miracles, with his current group The Miracles featuring Mark Scott. He is recognized as the last official lead singer of the Miracles by the Motown Alumni Association, and is the current lead vocalist on the recently 2016 version of the last officially recording of the Miracles' hit song "Love Machine". The album is currently in worldwide distribution on Motorcity Hits Records/ Famous Record Corp. The album is titled "Motorcity Love Songs", and currently available digitally on Amazon.com and all over the world.
