DK Harrell LIVE in San Francisco Night 1

In less than a year, singer-guitarist D.K. Harrell has catapulted from a blues artist with promise to one of the most sought-after musicians in the blues realm. His debut record, The Right Man on Little Village, won immediate critical raves worldwide upon its release in June 2023 and became the second most-played blues album on U.S. radio in 2023. In 2024 he was honored as Best Emerging Artist in the prestigious Blues Music Awards celebration held by the Memphis-based Blues Foundation. He also will play a stream of major U.S. festivals this year and has five European tours. In all he will play in 10 different countries this year.

He has burst on the blues scene in a big way. His impassioned live sets reflect his love of playing the blues, and there is a surge of joy in his songs that spills over to the audience. It’s that connection that is building his legacy. “I just love to play music for people, and to watch them share in the experience,” says Harrell. “I’ve always said that music is my voice.”
