Denison Witmer,来自费城,自幼受喜欢民谣音乐的母亲的影响,对民谣异常喜爱,他的音乐深受70年代的音乐特别是jackson browne 以及 graham nash的影响,人们常把他和james taylor比较;而他对音乐的理解、执着甚或偏执又和damien jurado, pedro the lion 甚或elliott smith颇为相似。包括ep、live,denison witmer至今有十张作品问世,风格基本统一,想象、信念、渴望、梦想、敏感是它们共有的关键词。
Denison Witmer Album to Feature Sufjan Stevens David Nadelle reports: Years toiling in dive bars and incessant journal-writing are starting to pay off for Philadelphia-based singer-songwriter Denison Witmer. While often compared to 70s classic songwriting relics like James Taylor and admitted influences Jackson Browne and Graham Nash, his earnest, idiosyncratic style has matured and now is more akin to Damien Jurado, Pedro the Lion or even Elliott Smith at times. His new album Are You a Dreamer? will be released on July 26 and will be his first album on the Militia Group.
The album is loosely conceptual, themed around all the aspects of dreams and the sense of hope that can be derived from them. Are You a Dreamer? benefits from contributions by a gifted cast of contributors, with Sufjan Stevens, the Innocence Mission's Don and Karen Peris, Ester Drang's James McAlister, and Shara Worden filling out the sound of Witmer's personal narrative tales.
