Brett Dennen: Love Speaks Tour!
February, 2 2007 at Paradise Lounge- 969 Comm. Ave, Boston
Brett Dennen’s greatest gift as a songwriter is his ability to work with one foot in a tradition associated with social protest while the other foot is in the love song tradition. The effect is altogether convincing, leaving us with the sense that we have on our hands a performer for whom the personal is always political and the political is always personal. In an age in which we have grown weary of artists’ conveniently detachable political asides, it’s galvanizing to see an artist weaving together his emotional and political commitments. Brett’s message is a commitment to the marriage of music and change.
