Damion ‘Yella P.’ Pearson is a native of Memphis, Tennessee. He’s a multitalented musician who blends Hip Hop and Delta Blues together into his own funky sound.
He got his start with music playing on Beale Street with ‘Big’ Jerry Parnell. He’s been a practicing musician for 17+ years and he considers himself among the last of the ‘real’ Bluesmen. He’s one of the first Bluesmen to grow up in the Hip Hop era, listening to the sound along with Blues, Soul and Gospel. This musical diversity is buried in his soul and pours out in his unique funky sound.
He’s known for his passionate performances in the community at church and cultural events, and at Blues and Jazz venues. His soulful Blues harmonica style has been compared to artists like Stevie Wonder, Bobby Rush and Little Walter. #WeArtUp
