Every now and then an artist emerges on the scene as if fully formed. The voice is distinct, immediate in its character. The songs feel like they truly belong to the singer. With the release of So Much More, Brett Dennen joins the ranks of those who fit this description. Others? Joni Mitchell. Rufus Wainwright. James Taylor. Patty Griffin. Steve Earle. John Mayer. It’s a class of artists defined not by genre or by a level of success but by the character of their entrance. To the listener, its infectious. This is an artist who will never get out there and sell himself, simply because he isnt interested and, more importantly, he wont need to. Theres no resisting the beautiful moment when a character like this comes walking toward us. Prepare to open your doors. This is the kind of guest we all hope for. |
