Scout Niblett, nascida em 1973 em Inglaterra, é uma cantora/compositora actualmente a viver nos EUA dona de uma voz, simultaneamente doce, melancólica e cortante. Uma das características que se destacam mais na sua música é o estilo minimalista, sendo que a sua voz é, normalmente, acompanhada apenas por guitarra e bateria. Para além de cantar é ela própria que, muitas vezes, toca os instrumentos que a acompanham.
Assumindo influências do grunge (especialmente Sonic Youth, Mudhoney e Nirvana), as suas composições combinam momentos quase infantis com uma energia frenética, esquizofrénica mesmo, resultando num estilo muito próprio.
Entre 2001 e 2010, Scout Niblett lançou cinco álbuns, entre os quais I Am (2003) e Kidnapped by Neptune (2005) com a colaboração de Steve Albini (que foi, também, produtor de bandas como Nirvana, Peaches e P.J. Harvey), e tornou-se conhecida pelos seus concertos intimistas.
