About this concert
Harlem Hayfield-
For some, finding the roots that truly ground us is a lifelong journey. For Harlem Hayfield, a six-piece music group based in Decatur, Illinois, that journey begins and ends with embracing their true identities: musicians, collaborators, and, perhaps most importantly, friends. Hailing from a sparsely populated factory town filled with more memories than people, the band blends eclectic music influences with personal life lessons, resulting in a groove-centric genre they describe as "rustbelt soul.” Their sound encompasses elements of southern rock, funk-infused abandon reminiscent of the 70s, and harmonies that also evoke a throwback nostalgia while maintaining a modern edge.
Brannon Durkin-
Brannon was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois which might lead you to ask yourself how is one so heavily influenced by country music. He was born into a transplant family originally from Buchanan County, Virginia. Growing up listening to everything from bluegrass, to country, to rock he was slowly consuming these sounds and fostering his musical tastes. Passion for music has always ran through Brannon's veins. From a very young age he would sing his favorite songs in the car, shower, kitchen, really anywhere he could. Brannon takes influence from a broad range of music but his most prominent idols would be Chris Stapleton, Jason Isbell, Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash, The Allman Brothers, and Led Zeppelin to name a few.

Harlem Hayfield Biography
For some, finding the roots that truly ground us is a lifelong journey. For Harlem Hayfield, a six-piece music group based in Decatur,
Illinois, that journey begins and ends with embracing their true identities: musicians, collaborators, and, perhaps most importantly,
friends. Hailing from a sparsely populated factory town filled with more memories than people, the band blends eclectic music
influences with personal life lessons, resulting in a groove-centric genre they describe as "rustbelt soul.” Their sound encompasses
elements of southern rock, funk-infused abandon reminiscent of the 70s, and harmonies that also evoke a throwback nostalgia while
maintaining a modern edge. At all times however, Harlem Hayfield creates music that makes the listener feel something. In early 2023, Harlem Hayfield signed a recording deal with New York-based Bridge Road Entertainment and producer David Bourgeois. Their debut full-length album, titled "Banter Tells and
Tricks," is scheduled for release in fall 2023. The record will feature guest appearances from Danny Louis of Gov’t Mule, as well as AAA
Top 40 blues-rock artists and Bridge Road label mates Jocelyn & Chris.
