Derrick Dove The Peacekeepers

"Southern Rock and then the kind that lies roughly somewhere between the Allman Brothers & the Tedeschi Trucks Band with a high Bob Seger content” — Blues Magazine

Derrick Dove & The Peacekeepers are an award-winning Southern-fried blues rock band from the South Georgia pines. Fronted by acclaimed guitarist, vocalist, and bandleader Derrick Dove, the group blends gritty blues, soulful grooves, classic rock drive, and unmistakable Southern character into a sound that is both powerful and deeply rooted. Their 2026 win as International Blues Challenge Band Champions in Memphis, along with Dove’s Best Guitarist honor, further established them as one of the strongest rising acts on today’s blues-rock circuit.

The band has multiple iTunes blues chart-toppers, including Rough Time and Burn It Down, with standout songs such as “When Did I Get Old,” “Comeback Kinda Love,” “Just Walk Away,” and “Can’t Move On.” They have shared stages with ZZ Top, Blackberry Smoke, The Marshall Tucker Band, The Wallflowers, and Jimmie Vaughan, building a reputation for high-energy performances driven by raw emotion and powerhouse musicianship. With a new album on the horizon, Derrick Dove & The Peacekeepers continue to move modern blues rock forward while staying true to their Southern roots.
