Brett Dennen is telling us to get out and see the world at a time when we need it morethan ever. Flame-haired, six-foot-five, and with a singular gift for meditating on life’smost meaningful subjects with equal parts innocence and razor sharp wit, you knowDennen from his decade-plus career as a singer/songwriter. With a successful string ofalbums and four Top Ten AAA singles like “Make You Crazy,” “Wild Child,” and 2018’s“Already Gone,” which achieved his highest chart position yet, Dennen has cementedhimself as afixture in American folk music. What you may not know about Brett is thathe did not set out to be a professional musician. It is a surprising revelation forsomeone who embodies the best of songwriting: singular storytelling, singability, andthe unique capacity to hold up a mirror to our lives, our society, and the greater world.
