• 4-time ECMA winner: Studio of The Year and Studio Engineer of The Year

    After graduating with a Diploma in Jazz Studies and a Bachelor of Music from St. Francis Xavier University, Scott Ferguson has gone on to live his musical dreams. In the early 80’s Scott focused on his jazz passion studying with renowned drum teacher Jim Blackley in Toronto and performing with such greats as Oliver Jones, Peter Appleyard and Dave Young.

    Settling in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Scott embarked on a 13 year tenure touring and recording with “The Rankin Family” and “The Rankin Sisters”. After hundreds of concerts Scott started pursuing his interest in studio production. Inspired by his work with legendary Nashville producers George Massenberg and John Jennings on the Rankin CDs “Uprooted” and "Endless Seasons", Scott opened FMP Matrix (Ferguson Music Productions) in 2001.

    Since then Scott has engineered and/or produced over 180 full length albums and countless sessions for artist such as April Wine, Myles Goodwyn, DeeDee Austin, Lisa Richard, Dean Brody, Dave Carroll, Jim Henman, Wayne Nicholson, John Campbelljohn, Terra Spencer, Charlie A'Court, Ian Sherwood and The Nova Scotia Mass Choir.

    Over the past 5 years Scott has developed a passion for helping people tell their stories visually and has directed and produced extensive content for music videos and television/film.
