David Karl Roberts

  • Big Heavy World 4 Howard Street, #A8 Burlington, VT, 05401 United States (map)

Combine an Americana Troubadour with a cocktail of soulful melodies, outlaw folk and swamp blues 

and you get David Karl Roberts, a songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who creates a blend of whiskey soaked, folk, blues and Americana.

A familiar face in the Northern New England music scene for several decades, DKR has been an opening act for nationally touring artists such as Dave Bromberg, Hot Tuna, New Riders of the Purple Sage, Fairport Convention, Dave Mason, Rick Danko, Joe Pug, Chris Pierce, Morphine and Aquarium Rescue Unit and can be found playing his songs in listening rooms and barrooms throughout New England.

What the Music Writers say:

David Karl Roberts revives the big sky, mountains, and forest….Roberts has a knack for crafting songs that spring out as if they were already 50 years old. His tunes have an organic, familiar feel…..he tells the story, but his guitar ultimately sets the mood.”

Jared O’Connor -Portsmouth Herald- Spotlight , Portsmouth, NH

“Roberts knows how to write and deliver a song. He’s comfortable onstage and in the studio, and you can trust pretty much anything with his name on it”
