Born and raised in Madrid Spain, Lucas Scott Lawrence grew up in a family of missionaries, artists and musicians. This allowed Scott to experience the impact of the arts on a global level. For Scott, the arts “give us a chance to reflect the creativity of our creator and express who He is in ways that all people can appreciate.”

The communicative force of singing compelled Scott to obtain his undergrad degree in Vocal Performance and to currently pursue a M.M. in Vocal Performance from the University of Mobile.

Although his training and experience spans multiple styles, from opera, crossover, and pop, to even competing internationally in barbershop, his classical foundation always reestablishes itself as his first musical love. As an avid student of vocal literature, Scott admits that he enjoys “researching and performing many unconventional pieces that many would likely consider to be on the outskirts of mainstream vocal literature, while also maintaining a deep respect and devotion to many of the foundational composers.” Memorable stage credits include: Balthazar in Menotti’s Amahl and the Night Visitors, Simone in Puccini’s Gianni Schicchi, Don Basilio in Rossini’s Il Barbiere di Siviglia, the title role in Gilbert & Sullivan’s “The Mikado”, Jud Fry in Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Oklahoma!, and Grantaire in Les Miserables.

“The opportunity to be part of something like Veritas is a dream come true. To know you are able to use your passions as well as your past experiences to create something that is so much larger than yourself is absolutely priceless.” The magic which develops throughout the night at a Veritas concert is truly a result of five unique vocals, backgrounds, and personalities coming together and producing an experience of emotional authenticity and grandeur that evokes an internal response from the listener, and this is exactly what keeps Scott motivated to work and collaborate with his fellow vocalists.

When not traveling with Veritas, you’ll most likely find Scott preparing a cup of coffee at his in-home science lab coffee bar for he and his wife Ellie, who is also an accomplished violinist and vocalist. “There’s no way I would be able to travel the way I do without the support of my wife. She is the one who keeps me grounded and focused and also gives me the best reason to look forward to coming home!” Currently, Scott and Ellie are in the process of expanding their family through the wonderful gift of adoption and look forward to welcoming home their child (children?) any day.

Scott is equally as passionate about the visual arts as he is about music and has worked professionally as a visual artist for the past 10 years. When not singing, painting, designing, discussing philosophy of the arts, or pursuing the perfect cup of coffee, he is most likely diving into the deep black hole that is Wikipedia.
