Al Lerman is a veteran musician with a highly personal style. Possessing a great knowledge of the blues tradition on both harmonica and guitar, he brings that sensibility to unique songs that he’s written about his own contemporary life and times. His soulful delivery, coupled with wry and thoughtful songwriting, make him an engaging and compelling solo performer.He is equally at home playing an intimate house concert as he on a large festival stage. Easy going with a wonderful sense of humour, he is considered among the top harmonica players in
the country, and has been heard on countless recordings and live sessions.
Al was founder of the much-loved band FATHEAD (1992-2016), garnering two JUNO AWARDS, and he is also a long-time member of the renowned Maple Blues Band. A solid fixture on the blues & roots scene for over fifty years, music not only runs through his veins, it is embedded deep into his bones.
Lerman has amassed an impressive legacy of songs along with a deserving list of industry awards & nominations. In 2026, his latest album,“Country-Fried Blues”, garnered a Canadian Blues Award nomination for Acoustic Recording Of The Year and he also snagged a nod for Blues Harmonica Player Of The Year.
