Details:
Denny has been in and around the music scene since 1970, as a singer, songwriter and guitarist most notably working with Manfred Mann & The Pirates before recording his own solo albums. These are a rarity only being sold by mail and at gigs. The first "Bless Tupelo", was recorded in 1990 on vinyl, sold out of it's original 1,000 pressings and has since been transferred to cd. It features 13 original songs and has long time pal Geoff Whitehorn guesting on guitar. An album recorded live in the studio, reminiscent of early Fleetwood Mac, and British electric blues. After a live broadcast on London's GLR radio, presenter Mary Costello described Denny as "the best kept secret in British blues".
In 1995 Denny recorded his next album,"Noah's Great Rainbow". Tired of the normal 'my woman left me and I'm broke' blues lyrics, he noted that blues was everywhere, in all of us for different reasons, and penned songs about house reposession, stealth taxes, the failure of successive governments to address the problems in voting systems and why youth has become so retro. Of course, there's the odd 'I love my girl' song to cheer things up, but if you like chicago style guitar and dylanesque lyrics, give this one a whirl. In the ten tracks here there's "a world of emotion that just keeps turning", "intense guitar", and "blues poetry", to pull out some radio quotes from various sources.
Denny's third album 'SLEEPWALKING WITH YOU' is now finished and available from cd baby or from Denny's own site, it features 10 original songs, and the inclusion of Max Middleton on keys has given Denny's songwriting another dimension, with Scott Newman, bass, and Jeff Allen, drums, an excellent permanent band has taken shape.
"We're very pleased with this one, having Jeff and Max around has opened the whole thing up, their wealth of experience in working with John Martyn, and Max with Jeff Beck, Chris Rea, Kate Bush etc etc really lets the songs develop, they change at every gig" It's selling well at gigs, but needs our cd baby connection to push it more, buy! buy! buy!
