Scott "Patio Daddio" Achord was originally from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, moving to Music City in 1993.  He has worked with many of the biggest names in music, including Jo-el Sonnier, Essra Mohawk, Bill Monroe, Carlene Carter, and many others.
          Patio is the top songwriter for Delicious Blues Stew, where he plays bass and shares lead vocal duties with Shannon "Bayou" Williford.  He is well known for his stage creativity and humor, often performing in costume at Mardi Gras.  The band earned a spot in the finals in the 1997 International Blues Challenge in Memphis, and has recorded three albums, the last two on the Nightfly Music label.  The group also has cuts on several compilation albums.  Playing an eclectic mix of original tunes and classic Louisiana covers, the Stew brings the spirit of Mardi Gras to every gig.
          Music City Blues recently named Achord the Bass Player of the Year.  In addition, Patio was part of the Acoustic Stew, which won Music City Blues' Acoustic band challenge in 2003.
          Achord teams up with Shannon Williford to present Swamp Stories, using storytelling and humor to teach children about cultural differences and history.
