Davell Crawford

Grandson of New Orleans R&B legend James “Sugarboy” Crawford, Davell Crawford is the living, breathing embodiment of everything that makes New Orleans music great. Heir to the New Orleans piano legacy of Jelly Roll Morton, James Booker and Professor Longhair, and with a charisma evocative of Satchmo, his soulful voice taps a deep emotional well that irresistibly draws listeners into his world. Simply one of the most brilliant artists the Crescent City has ever produced, and that’s saying something.
