Bio:
D E A N W O L F E B A N D :
Guitar. It’s all about the guitar. And oh yeah, the songs. But not in that order…
With the finger-picking confidence of Leo Kottke or fellow Canadian Bruce Cockburn, pop-rock folkster Wolfe and crew (Ray Mohr- Pedal Steel Guitar) round up instantly memorable songs- charged with Daniel Lanois-esque atmospheric electricity and the dusty road americana of lonesome telecaster guitars, cello, slide, and rusty harmonicas.
A b o u t D e a n W o l f e :
Canadian multi-instrumentalist Dean Wolfe began writing and recording his own music at age 10.
At age 18 he started full-time touring as guitarist in a cover rock band.
Wolfe went the solo singer/songwriter route: his ‘official’ debut “11:59 ” referred to a tendency of blooming late.
has recorded several songs of diverse influences for fun and hopefully to get licensed for usage in TV or movies or web stuff (see Smash Up Derby online releases)
His lyrics tend toward hope, spiritual searching, and healing (Wolfe is into spiritual healing).
Wolfe’s music hints of Neil Young, Crowded House, REM, Blue Rodeo and vocally reminiscent Ben Folds.
From St. Catharines Ontario- now living in Victoria B.C. Canada with wife and 3 children.
