David Kent

I'm just...... Grimey Blue

About Me

David Kent draws from a wide range of influences that comes through in his music. From the Classic Rock that he grew up on when he was a teenager, to the Blues, Americana, Folk, Roots, World, Bluegrass, and everything else he listens to these days. He uses the Acoustic format to make himself heard. Teaming up with the singer/songwriter Steve Witt and their Trio Grimey Blue With Tom Patterson on Harmonica, you get everything from hard driving Blues to Heartfelt Americana and intense Acoustic Rock. The San Francisco Bay Area is a hotbed for the music scene and David Kent fits right in. For an interview on David Kent go to www.theopenmic.net
