Don Merckle Music

A darkly honest and wry singer/songwriter out of Charleston, South Carolina, Don Merckle’s songs are firmly planted among the fertile mixed traditions of American music. He is a workman’s poet, capable of delivering a rock and roll growl or a quiet dose of smoky barroom introspection with equal passion.

From The Papers

Post and Courier

"Merckle pulls hard back towards the dark glint and wild-eyed verve that drove his earlier, more rocking personas, but with an increasingly adventurous and quasi-experimental edge...a thoroughly assured collection of tunes...some of his most well-written and delivered of his career.”

Charleston City Paper

"His approach to connecting with audiences far and wide is special...And he has a particularly outstanding batch of material right now with which to wow them."

The Sound Connector

"Merckle’s latest is a mid-summer family reunion—the whiskey is cold and the conversation is so good that no one wants to bicker."

Jasper Magazine

"...the plainspoken story of a blue-collar boy going off to war delivered with the kind of effortless roots-rock sweep which has made Jason Isbell and The Avett Brothers into household names."
