An Evening with Derick Leduke

About this event

Join us for a chill evening of music with Derick Leduke! Derick Leduke is a 22-year-old guitar virtuoso and singer-songwriter rooted in Los Angeles, now based in Nashville, TN. Blending raw musicality with a powerful voice and magnetic stage presence, Derick has carved out a style all his own, deeply inspired by legends like Eric Clapton, Jim Croce, and John Mayer, and heavily shaped by his biggest influence, Australian fingerstyle icon Tommy Emmanuel. He picked up the guitar at age 12, learning songs in his bedroom and falling in love with the one-man-band style of performance. By 15, he was street performing in Santa Monica. From 17 to 20, he played hundreds of bar and wedding gigs across LA, gaining a reputation for his intricate guitar work and passionate performances. But as his success grew, so did a deeper calling. In late 2024, Derick left the comfort of LA, suddenly driving across the states in his Chevy van, his vision, and a fresh start before him. He hustled, gigged, built genuine connections, and shared the journey online. Within months, he was on tour across the East Coast and Midwest, opening for Australian guitar phenom Kyran Daniel with a bold, original set that marked his official launch as a recording artist. Now based in Nashville, Derick is focused on writing, recording, and bringing his unique sound to audiences around the country, one stage, one story, and one person at a time.
