JULY 20 ~ DENNY BREAU
Denny Breau
Denny Breau’s rhythmically flawless and dazzlingly clear style allows him to do amazing and
stunning things with a six-string guitar. He first draws in an audience with a finely arranged melody
and then slides effortlessly into scorching fingerwork that sets ears aflame. The lightning fast guitar
lines that seem almost humanly impossible to accomplish are balanced with those that have a quiet
intimacy and wrap tenderly around his carefully crafted songs. He mixes genres with ease — folk,
Delta blues, country and jazz — “creating a totally accessible musical mélange that captivates as it
entertains,” according to Lucky Clark writing for the Kennebec (Maine) Journal. 6-8
