Denison starts work on his seventh LP...
Almost three years have passed since the 2005 release of Denison's Are You A Dreamer?. You may be wondering: What has he been doing with all of his time? When is he going to record another album?The answers are in:
In the last few years, Denison has toured both the US and Europe four times.
In early 2006, Denison joined his friends Rosie Thomas and Sufjan Stevens to record and co-produce Rosie's latest LP These Friends of Mine (linked below in news section).
October 2006 brought with it the 10th anniversary of Denison's debut album, Safe Away. The Militia Group re-released Safe Away as a double disc, repackaging it with new artwork and including the bonus EP Are You A Sleeper?.
On November 4, 2006, Denison celebrated his thirtieth birthday by launching a charity website, Happy Birthday Denison. The website, which features over thirty free songs, raises money for the non-profit organizations Partners In Health and Musicians on Call.
In March 2007, Denison fulfilled a lifetime dream, buying his first home in Philadelphia, PA. After seven months and many trips to the local hardware store, Denison completely rehabbed his house and built his first dedicated home studio.
Since the beginning of this year, Denison has been making demos and writing new songs in preparation for his seventh album. He is scheduled to record this spring in Seattle, WA with producer and friend Blake Wescott. The album will feature many familiar faces, including Rosie Thomas and James McAlister (drums on Are You A Dreamer?). Recording will begin at London Bridge Studios and end at Studio Litho.
The recording process will be documented on Denison's new FLICKR ACCOUNT
