Last Chance℠ is the musical duo of singer-songwriter Jack Scott and fiddler-vocalist Ingrid Rosenback. The group performs Jack’s original songs, fiddle music, and traditional songs. Jack plays 5-string banjo and guitar, and Ingrid plays fiddle. Last Chance is a contemporary and traditional folk-roots fusion and bluegrass duo.
Armed with a guitar, a banjo and an appreciation for folk music, good rock and roll, bluegrass and other musical variations, Jack has been venturing into songwriting for years. Since 2001 he has served as self-appointed “banjo-boy” for the Wilmington based band, Whirled Peas. His original songs, which number over 200, have been recorded by Whirled Peas, by band-mate John Allen Frink, and by Last Chance on their CD, We Came to Play. Jack teaches a songwriting course, “Write From the Heart,” at Temple University’s Osher Lifelong Learning Institute.
Ingrid is a classical violinist with a degree in violin performance from the Ester Boyer College of Music and Dance at Temple University. She is a freelance musician with Heartstrings Entertainment and La Folia Strings. She moonlights as a fiddler-singer with Whirled Peas in addition to teaming up with Jack in Last Chance, where she plays, sings and contributes fiddle and vocal arrangements. Having served as a member of the faculty of The Music School of Delaware, Ingrid now teaches violin at Philadelphia’s Temple Music Prep and in her home studio.
