DeeMan3
DeeMan3 is a Salt Lake–based trio of seasoned musicians—Derrek Wright (DeeMan), John “JT” Draper, and Doug Wright—delivering a dynamic blend of Americana, blues, and soul.
Their live show moves effortlessly from intimate storytelling to high-energy grooves, combining strong original material with crowd-favorite covers. Drawing inspiration from artists like Neil Young, Dire Straits, and Elvis Costello, DeeMan3 creates a sound that feels both familiar and fresh—keeping audiences engaged from the first note to the last.
Fronted by DeeMan on acoustic guitar and vocals, the trio is powered by Doug Wright’s groove-driven upright bass and JT’s versatile mix of lap steel, lead guitar, and harmonica, delivering a rich, rootsy sound that ranges from soulful ballads to foot-stomping, rhythm-driven rompers.
With something for everyone and a natural chemistry that comes from years on stage, DeeMan3 brings songs, groove, and energy that connect with any crowd.
