I couldn't find one. I'm just getting into him but I'm really digging his sound and hope I have a chance to catch him this year. Anyone else give him a listen?

I saw Brett at Langerado last year I had listened to his albums and became a fan and to my wonderful surprise at that show his backing band was all the members of Animal Liberation Orchestra except for Zach the keyboardist, so it was great to see 2 bands you like at one time playing together.

I really like Brett Dennen, but his latest album isn't doing it for me. Too many love songs, which i know he is good at but are just not for me. He is a genius lyricist and songwriter so I will be there as long as there are no major conflicts.

I completely agree. I felt like he was trying too hard to say something, and did a much better job on the previous album without trying as hard. But he's one of my must sees.

Completely, entirely agree. His set was so energetic. Incredible performance. I've been a fan for a while, but it was my first time seeing him live.

I'm so jealous that the Avetts have him opening for their cd release show. 2 of my favorite bands together! WHAT THE F!

I can't wait to see him at Rothbury.

Hmm, I think I'm missing one, but I definitely remember him playing "Darlin' Do Not Fear", "Make You Crazy", and "Blessed".

No Femi. The keyboardist just did a solo over Femi's part.
