Beverly Jo Scott (born May 15, 1959), also known as B. J. Scott, is an American-born singer-songwriter living in Brussels, Belgium.[1][2]
Biography
Born in Deer Park, Alabama, Beverly Jo Scott grew up nearby in Bay Minette, where, as a teen, she began singing.
She moved to New Orleans, Louisiana, then to California and, ultimately, in 1982, to Europe after a trip to Brussels, Belgium, resulted in her living there.[1]
Music career
In Europe, she has regularly performed in France and Germany at festivals and large music halls. In 2010, she performed Planet Janis, a touring tribute show to Janis Joplin. She also released Swamp Cabaret, a one-woman multimedia show focusing on the Gulf Coast.[3]
In June 2011, after living 30 years abroad, Scott performed in her home state of Alabama at the Saenger Theatre in Mobile, as part of a Live at Space concert series.[4]
In September 2011, Chickfest's featured artists included Scott, who Press-Register Entertainment described as building "a thriving career in Belgium over the last three decades, but maintains a legion of fans back home, thanks to the earthy passion of her music."[5]
She co-wrote "Rhythm Inside" with Loïc Nottet, who represented Belgium with this song in the Eurovision Song Contest 2015.
Radio and television work
Scott has been a coach on The Voice Belgique, the French-speaking Belgian version of the singing competition franchise The Voice, since its beginning in November 2011, except for season 8.[2] Winners of seasons 5 (Laura Cartesiani), 9 (Jérémie Makiese), and 10 (Alec Golard) were her coachees.
Scott also hosts BJ's Sunday Brunch, a radio show, on Sundays from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m., on Brussels-based French-speaking radio station Classic 21.
