Philip Scott Poli
Born and raised in Windsor Ontario, Philip Scott Poli’s love of song sprang from listening to his aunts, uncles and grandparents bang out wartime songs on an old upright Heintzman piano. He left Windsor to perform for over a decade as tenor vocalist for the highly successful Toronto show band “The Fabulous Haircuts”.

By the mid 90s, Philip resigned from performing to more seriously pursue songwriting. His song “Radio Flyer” was a top ten finalist in the 2006 Great lakes Songwriting Contest and he composed music for the opening ceremonies of the International Children’s Games, as well as the lead track for “Reflections on 1812”, a Heritage Canada sponsored suite of historical songs. He is a familiar face in the listening rooms of Southwestern Ontario, known for his heartfelt down to earth delivery of emotionally compelling original songs.

Those nights around the “old upright”, countless trips to Nashville’s listening rooms to “learn by osmosis” and the completion of a Specialist Certificate with Berklee’s songwriting program are the foundation and fuel for the creation of lyrics and melodies that cut across decades of song form bending and blending genres into modern yet tradition steeped songs that span country, American Songbook, Americana and folk.

With the 2020 releases of his “Songwriter’s Business Card”, “One Sky” offers a sampling of songs from his repertoire where one might hear Harold Arlen meets Willie Nelson or Neil Young meets John Prine. Philip is currently writing and recording for a follow up release of “Rust Belt Factory Tunes” due out in 2021.
