Local Artist Spotlight: The Gayle Harrod Band

https://linktr.ee/nightingayle811

There are bands out there that weave a musical story so vivid that you wind up in the middle of it. The Gayle Harrod Band not only understands that but leans into it. Band leader and lead vocalist Gayle Harrod achieves a rare, honest, and spell-binding level of performance with thrillingly rocket-powered vocals, a signature blend of grit, gravel, and pure defiance, yet can summon warm, smoky, velvety tones and draw the listener in with a heartbreaking quiet, confessional intimacy. The Gayle Harrod Band’s Debut CD, Temptation, was released in February 2023 and is a beautiful showcase of Blues styles from Chicago to New Orleans, Memphis to the Mississippi Delta and Muscle Shoals; with influences of Motown, R&B, Gospel and Soul. Temptation was also chosen by the Blues Foundation as a finalist in the 2024 International Blues Challenge for Best Self Produced CD and is a 2024 Wammie Award Winner for Best Blues Album. The Gayle Harrod Band also won 2024 Wammies for Best Blues Artist and Best Blues Song for “In the Deep Dark Night”.
