Dennis Hitchcox
Dennis Hitchcox
Guitar-drenched, drowsy songwriting, with stylish hooks, jazz guitar techinques, and bittersweet lyricism. Dennis Hitchcox's debut album takes off in a hazy jazz/folk spectrum and lands somewhere between minimalist Americana rock and punk folk.

Description
"Most often, a singer/songwriter will write a song, and then bring in other instruments during the recording session to add some depth. This method has its pros and cons. There is more to listen to, but sometimes the parts dangle and don't seem to have any purpose beyond just being there. It seems Hitchcox had this in mind while recording this album. Each song is comprised of one vocal track, and no more than two guitar parts, usually just the chords and a simple solo. The bad news is that every song ends up sounding pretty much like every other song. The good news is that every song is really quite good. The guitar playing is superb and delicate. Dennis has one of those earthy kind of voices that feels vaguely familiar and living room comfortable. The songs sound like an up-beat version of Greg Brown, the early years. They're bluesy at times, ballad at others, and can switch back and forth without any creases, even within the same song. (Track 5, Give In is a good example.)
This album is a really great disk to pop in for some mellow company on a weekday, or at the end of a long party. It's mellow without being sleepy, though I'm sure it would be a fine record to drift off to." - David Also Music Liberation Project: Volume 1: i7 October 2003
"An evening akin to sitting in a comfortable chair, next to a warm fire, reading a favorite collection of short stories. Pleasant and image provoking, Dennis' music soothes the casual listener and engages the more discerning audience. In other words, it is good stuff!"
-Jess Robertson, Portland Promoting & Booking, Songwriter
"Dennis Hitchcox has a unique yet familiar style. his music is thought-provoking. Simple yet elegant melodies get stuck in your head no matter how hard you hit it with a hammer."
-Kevin Nettleingham, Nettleingham Audio, the Martindales
