Hope For The Hopeless... Happy Birthday, Brett Dennnen & Ben Harper

A singer/songwriter from the Bay Area, Brett Dennen has been on my monthly playlists for 6 months with his songs: Crazy, Ain't No Reason, She's Mine, & especially HEAVEN (fast becoming 1 of my all time favorites).  Heaven is a hymn & an anthem & a beautiful, striking & inspiring song. There are several versions out there, but I recommend the duet version with Natalie Merchant. Here he is live:


Today is also the Birthday of Brett's friend Ben Harper. They are both deeply invloved in the very worthy Love Speaks organization.

Brett Dennen

This is going to turn into a music blog; I just know it!
This is a new (to me) artist that I am really digging. Folk is not my favorite genre, but I do have some in my collection & after all- I did go to church camp as a kid.
Brett Dennen is from California & I really love his voice... sort of an American David Grey?
Take a look & listen.
