Biography
Scotty Inman grew up watching his father Clayton Inman perform with the Singing Americans, Kingdom Heirs, and Won By One. In 2001, he followed in his father’s footsteps when he joined Phil Cross & Poet Voices to sing baritone. In 2002, Won By One dissolved around the same time Poet Voices retired, so Scotty and his father decided to form a new group together.
Around the same time, tenor singer David Sutton, bass singer Eric Bennett, and pianist Jeff Stice left the Kingdom Heirs and were searching for a lead and baritone to complete their new group. In 2002, they all joined forces to form Integrity Quartet. The group name was later changed to Triumphant Quartet.
In addition to singing, Scotty became an accomplished songwriter. Early in his career as a writer, he asked Dianne Wilkinson if she would consider co-writing with him. Wilkinson had not routinely worked with co-writers up to that point. One of the first songs they completed was “Hey Jonah” which Triumphant recorded in 2005 on a self-titled CD. The experience went so well that Inman continued to co-write songs with Wilkinson as well as many other songwriters over the years.
After singing baritone more than 20 years with Triumphant, Inman announced his departure from the group in July 2023 to concentrate on his solo career. At the time, it was announced that he would be staying with the group through the end of the year while a replacement was sought. However, the prompt hiring of Sean Barber in August 2023 caused him to modify his plans, and his final performance with the group took place on September 1, 2023.
