There's never been any question in my mind; Harpdog Brown is absolutely the 'genuine item, the real deal. The way he puts his individual stamp on everything he does and with his command of his stage, youll enjoying every minute of the show.
The Dog started playing blues 1981 and never looked back. Hes shared the stage with such greats as Matt Guitar Murphy, Pinetop Perkins, Tim Williams, Kenny Blues Boss Wayne, The Powder Blues Band, Willie Macallder, Jack deKezer, Fathead, Donald Ray Johnson, Morgan Davis and the late Dutch Mason.
In 1994 Harpdog won the prestigious ( Muddy Award ) the only Canadian band to receive this honor. In 1995 he was nominated for a Juno Award for ( Best Blues Album ).
Brown is a wonderfully gifted singer with a rich palette of colors and a imaginative harmonica player that takes traditional blues into the 20th century.

Brandon's affinity for the rawness and spontanaiety of the blues is second to none, as anyone who has had the privilege of being in his audiences will tell you. He brings a firebrand style of guitar and killer vocals that truly has to be seen and heard to be appreciated! He is VERY much in the moment as he rips it up and we know you'll be impressed with the sounds he coaxes and wrings out of his guitar!
