is the real deal. Born and raised on an Alabama farm, Donna witnessed life in
the South first hand, channeling it into the soulful music that she creates and performs. Music
runs in her family; her mother performed rock and roll in go-go boots and mini-skirts and her
grandfather was a fine musician in his own right. Donna is a consummate seasoned songwriter
and performer, and has opened for and shared the stage with such luminaries as Col. Bruce
Hampton, Derek Trucks, Francine Reed, Joe Bonamassa, Emily Saliers, Jerry Lee Lewis,
Stevie Wonder, Tanya Tucker and Robert Cray.

As much at home in an intimate listening venue as she is on a giant festival stage, Donna
Hopkins performs both solo and accompanied by the perfectly seasoned group of musicians
who make up the Donna Hopkins Band, and is always a crowd pleaser.

Hey, groovy folks! I’m or just Cam for short, and I have always been immersed in music from the start. My dad was in several bands throughout my childhood, and my mom was as big of a supporter of live music as anyone can be, so most of my earliest memories involve being at a concert with family and friends gathered around having the time of their lives. From sitting in drum circles as a five-year-old kid to leading my own band on stages across the southeast, being in the center of the musical action always was, and still is, my dream. There isn’t an instrument I don’t want to play, a venue I don’t want to perform at, or a song I don’t want to sing- and that desire to play music, all music, to everyone, is what drives my songwriting and performance style every day. Much love, thanks for listening.
