Born in St Louis, Mo.
My musical career began at the age of 16 where i performed as a guitar in a gospel band in my home town of St Louis Mo. At the age of 19 I enter The Clayton Academy of Music (a branch of Washington University in St Louis) to learn jazz guitar. From there the sky opened up. I performed with Oliv ... er Sain, Chuck Berry and The Robert White Band .
In the 80`s, I moved to Ft Laud Fl. From there I was employed by
Daemine and Natalie and The Factor for as a Musical Director /Guitarist and Lead/Backing vocalist. We worked for:

Featuring Tributes and Induction to:
BB King
Chuck Berry

Now with all of the experience that I have accumulated I have designed the Ultimate Variety Tribute Show, Derek Blake`s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Show. The new act was debut in June 8th 2017 in St Louis , Mo at a farewell concert for Chuck Berry in St Louis, Mo. The response was great and I knew then I had something new and unique. The Show was a Tribute to BB King ,Chuck Berry and Jimi Hendrix. However the show also includes additional tributes to Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, Glen Campbell, Santana, John Mayer, George Harrison and Prince. It`s a 60 minutes show that features full costume of Jimi Hendrix and Chuck Berry. I also encourage audience participation. This is a family show for all ages. This will be a great experience for all types of music lovers.

Meet the Act

I grew up in a small town outside of St Louis, Mo call U, City. Great town. Something out of a Norman Rockwell painting. I started playing guitar at 16 with a gospel band and rest is history. I can imagine my life without being on stage performing and seeing the look on those faces then getting a chance to meet some great musician. I am the song of my life.
