Scott Warren (born November 3, 1962) is an American keyboardist renowned for his role in the heavy metal group Dio, where he performed from 1994 until the band's dissolution in 2010.

Starting his keyboard journey at the age of six, Warren later pursued formal music education at the Dick Grove School of Music.

In addition to his tenure with Dio, Warren has collaborated with several other bands such as Warrant, Keel, Berlin, and Heaven & Hell, the latter also featuring Ronnie James Dio.

Presently, Warren is active with Dio Disciples, a group that includes remaining members from Dio's last lineup alongside former Lynch Mob frontman Oni Logan. He is also a member of Hellion, performing alongside Simon Wright, another Dio Disciples musician.

Dio

Warren became part of Dio during the Strange Highways tour in 1993 and continued until Ronnie James Dio’s passing in 2010, establishing himself as the band's second longest-standing member after Dio himself. Among his significant contributions are two organ solos featured on "Before the Fall" from the 2002 release Killing the Dragon. After Dio's death, Warren described their 17-year partnership as deeply meaningful both personally and professionally.

Additionally, Warren filled in on keyboards for Josh Silver during the final tour of Type O Negative.
