Details:
Born in Maysville, Kentucky, now living in Indianapolis by way of Atlanta, Georgia, Dean began playing guitar at age 9. He would often travel with his father to sing in a number of different churches close to his northern Kentucky home. Now nfluenced by a number of singer/songwriters like John Prine, John Hiatt, Nanci Griffith and Kate Wolf, his music is an acoustic blend of folk, rock and traditional styles.

Not a songwriter himself, Dean looks to the words of others to get his point across. he sings songs that are both religious and secular and has made several arrangements of traditional hymns and songs of the Christian faith.

Dean sings songs that tell stories about people, life and faith.

Going Over Home is Dean's first studio effort, recorded at B-Side Studios/Corn Crib Records and released in 1997. The album highlights Dean's vocal abilities and his acoutic guitar picking style. These arrangements are filled out by the work of K.B. Travis (bass), Steve Mayfield (keyboard) and Rick Paller (acoustic and electric lead guitar). Going Over Home was capably engineered and mixed by Mark Blackburn.
