Brett Dennen to launch tour in January

Brett Dennen’s 54-city headlining tour beginning Jan. 16 will feature great supporting artists, some surprise college campus visits in the works and affordable tickets ranging from $15 - $22.

He’ll play the TONIGHT SHOW WITH JAY LENO on 1/14 and LATE NIGHT WITH CONAN O’BRIEN in Feb. with a special guest (date & guest to be announced).

ROLLING STONE warns that Brett, “may soon give Dave Matthews a run for his tour grosses.” USA TODAY noted “Dennen grabs a ray of sunshine and swings gently on his aptly titled, Hope For The Hopeless.”

Brett’s single “Make You Crazy” with Femi Kuti is a Top Ten hit – for 15 weeks in a row – amongst Coldplay, the Killers, the Fray, Snow Patrol, Ryan Adams and Bruce Springsteen on the tastemaker AAA chart. The song goes to Hot AC radio in January with major cities already signed on. If you haven’t seen his quirky video for the song, featuring Mandy Moore check it out below. It’s a humorous take on “trends” centered on Brett’s trademark barefoot performances. The video is true Brett – quirky but confident and, like every BD concert, all-inclusive. A list of concert dates is below!
