Powderhead - Launch

Legendary guitar slinger/singer/songwriter/producer/visual artist Dave Perkins is back with his 6th roots-rock solo album, Powderhead.

A personal note from Dave: 

Thank you for your interest in Powderhead—the album that nearly wasn’t.  As some of you know, my Nashville home burned during the great ice storm holocaust of early 2026.  Among the critical belongings saved from the flames were the master recordings that are now Powderhead. A few of these songs were born in dark times. And back in January, clouds turned to smoke bent on keeping them quiet. But, thanks to Nashville’s firefighters, here they are in all their smokey glory.

Violent family blood, betrayal, murder, humor, and redemption . . .

all in the stew of Dave Perkins’ thorny epic of the unbleached South,

Consider yourselves “kicked”
