Age Old Hunger

Timothy S. Griffin, http://griffinshot.com

Christopher Denny‘s appearance has something of a chameleon quality.  Slight differences set apart one image or photo of him from another– but when you hear his voice, there’s no question.  His voice is distinguished – an unforgettable  tremolo reminiscent of many of the 1920s Gospel Blues crooners and pitch and tone akin to Anthony of Anthony And The Johnsons , Denny’s vocal twang lies in his upbringing in Arkansas, he’s quoted to have been influenced by Hank Thompson, Lefty Frizzell,  Jeff Buckley and Patsy Cline. He issued one Album in 2007: Age Old Hunger and the latest cover of My Morning Jacket’s Bermuda Highway is just an amuse bouche from  his new album due out sometime in the spring 2014 (Partisan Records).

I’ll stick my neck out as far as Brighton pier to say that if he’s not part of the European Festival scene in 2014 … I’ll eat the whole pier!
Book-m!
