Brett Dennen Charms the Sold-Out Crowd at the State Theatre

State Theatre, Falls Church, VA

This up-and-coming singer-songwriter impressed the sold-out crowd at State Theatre with his smoky-smooth vocals, a cross between Paolo Nutini and Teitur. Some have drawn comparisons to a young Bob Dylan. This California boy has a bright career ahead. He's touring to support his chart-topping album, Hope for the Hopeless. His single "Make You Crazy" is an infectious ditty that features Afrobeat musician Femi Kuti.

Much of his repertoire is mellow, blending alt-indie rock and jazz. He stepped up toward the encore with a beat that had the crowd clapping and dancing all over the room.

Definitely one to watch...
