BAMP Project presents Brett Dennen performing live in Maui at the Maui Arts & Culture Center Courtyard Friday, February 27th, 2015 in Association with Rick Cooper Music.Tickets are on sale NOW at the locations listed below. This event is open to all ages.
Brett Dennen’s music career began humbly around the camps of the Sierra Nevada mountain range—a retreat to which he would return for inspiration on Smoke and Mirrors. Brett’s 2006 release, So Much More, officially launched him as a discovery artist and drew frequent comparisons to troubadours like Paul Simon and Tom Petty. In 2008 his Hope for the Hopeless didn’t stray too far from the songwriter’s comfort zone, though a partnership with producer John Alagia (Dave Matthews Band, John Mayer) led to a high level of production not yet heard on any of his albums. In 2011, Dennen’s Loverly was his biggest departure to date: a danceable collection of songs influenced by the road and recorded by a studio filled with friends and imperfect takes.
“It was time to get back to basics.” Brett Dennen says of his fifth record, Smoke & Mirrors, out October 22th, 2013. “I wanted to return to the folk and acoustic music I loved when I began writing. I decided to tap into my memories and explore new emotional territory as honestly as I could.” “Wild Child,” the album’s lead single, is packed with hooks including a sing-a-long chorus augmented by a bit of George Harrison-style slide guitar. Deanne and renowned produced Charlie Peacock chose Nashville as a home based with a shared goal to bring life to the recordings that would focus on his vocals and acoustic elements.
Local opener will be announced soon.
