Deryl Dodd (born Deryl Dwaine Doddd, April 12, 1964) is an American country music singer-songwriter. Originally a regular on the Texas club circuit, he moved to Nashville, Tennessee, soon finding work as a harmony vocalist and songwriter. By 1996, he was signed to a recording contract, releasing two albums and charting several singles on the country charts, before a debilitating bout of viral encephalitis which put his career on hiatus. Having recovered from his encephalitis in 2000, Dodd later resumed his singing career; he continues to record and tour to this day.
