Keelan Harvick Plays Drums With Jake Owens

Delana and husband Kevin Harvick with their kids, Keelan and Piper.

The perks of being the child of a NASCAR star are rewarding. Below, you can witness six-year-old, Keelan Paul Harvick (son of Kevin and DeLana Harvick) as he is brought onto stage to play drums before the 61st Daytona 500 with Jake Owens.

When you get to play drums on stage before the Daytona 500! 🥁🏎 Thanks Mr. @jakeowen 💙 #thanksmrmyron #rockstarinthemaking pic.twitter.com/mI7XmGr5B8

Country music artist Jake Owen, a Florida native, performed in the pre-race show. #daytona500 #nascar

Country music artist Jake Owen, a Florida native, grew up going to the Daytona 500.

“It’s a big deal for everyone whether you’re a Floridian or not,” he said. “I definitely came as a kid.”

Owen – whose 2013 hit “Beachin’” features Daytona Beach and its music video contains shots of the Boardwalk – performed the pre-race concert before the Daytona 500.

To grow up a Florida kid 🍊 and have the honor of playing the @DISupdates #Daytona500 is hard to put into words... thankfully @MatthewPaskert snapped this photo. I think this says it all. Thanks to @NASCAR and all the fans for allowing me to entertain y'all on such a special day. pic.twitter.com/vCfaRhPFUS

My favorite picture. Me and JD together before my first race in 2006. My dad in the background looking on. He said to JD, “He’s all yours now” I’ll never forget it pic.twitter.com/w6Ldj7FAIf
