MP3 Michael Denvir - 8 Sketches
8 MP3 Songs
FOLK: Modern Folk, ROCK: Modern Rock
Details:
Michael Denvir''s music comes out of the lyrical tradition of songwriters like Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen. He adds to this his personal voice, and artistic influences as disparate as Walt Whitman, Geto Boys, and Friedrich Nietzsche. His songs are saturated in a desire to find beauty and meaning through language and self-expression. Music Connection writes: "Meshing basic guitar chords with exquisitely written poetry, Michael Denvir has added a modern twist to the traditional sound of folk music." A napkin poet since the age of 15, his songs are informed by a life lived all over the U.S., years spent on and off the street as a drug addict, and his ultimate decision to live clean, face his fears, and choose life.
Though often compared to any white man who has ever picked up an acoustic guitar (Paul Simon, Elliot Smith, James Taylor, etc.) Denvir''s music is distinctly his own and needs to be heard to be truly appreciated. https://www.tradebit.com writes of his recordings: "Michael Denvir delivers a group of exceptionally well-focused, not-for-the-timid songs that are often frank to the point of making rap seem circumspect." The LAWeekly writes of his live performances: "Denvir is very much a musical alchemist, who with guitar in hand can turn the harsh realities of life and love into beautifully striking, tuneful poetry." Perennially named one of Southern California''s Hottest 100 Unsigned Artists by Music Connection Magazine, Denvir has been playing in the LA area for years, sometimes solo and sometimes with band, selling 1000s of his self-produced cds, and gaining a loyal, local following in the process.
"Michael''s sometimes explosive, other times heartwrenching, always telling songs" (https://www.tradebit.com) are each worlds unto themselves, and windows into an authentic and original artist. Some common themes include the joy and the guilt of self, the joy and the guilt of sex, god, doubt, famous painters, the music industry, Los Angeles, beauty, Shakespeare, creativity, America, remembered and lost love, and more sex. So if you have lived in Los Angeles, thought about the existence or non-existence of a supreme being, been in love, seen Hamlet, or had or like sex (among other things), you may like his music.
