Gerry Casey's Interview with Harrell "Young Rell" Davenport

Making a Scene Presents Gerry Casey's Interview with Harrell "Young Rell" Davenport How does a 19-year-old blues artist from Vicksburg, Mississippi play his first gig in Chicago and end up with 165,000 views and 4,000 shares of the performance on Facebook? In the case of Harrell “Young Rell” Davenport, the answer is simple: he is one of the most exciting young voices rising in the blues today. Young Rell began playing harmonica and guitar at the age of seven, discovering early that the blues gave him both a language and a lifeline. As a child, he faced personal struggles and trauma, and he found comfort in music born from hardship, resilience, and survival. The blues became more than a style for him. It became a way to understand pain, express emotion, and turn difficult experience into something honest and powerful. http://www.makingascene.org
