Биография

A singer-songwriter & an anthropologist, Denise Glover's life work is centered on people, communities, love, & social justice. Musical influences include Joni Mitchell, Linda Ronstadt, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, & Mark Knopfler. Originally from New York & New England, the Pacific Northwest is where Denise has made her home for over 20 years. She has released three solo albums, Pathways (2016), Gaps in the Stories (2018), & Dreams of the Butterfly (2022) with producer Julian Smedley. Her music is moving, thought-provoking, & inspirational. Having lived and worked in other countries, her perspective is broad, yet grounded in every day experiences. The genres of music she writes within are folk, bluegrass, Americana, & country. "The music of singer-songwriter Denise Glover, from Seattle, emphasizes rootsy original material with poignancy and soul. Besides singing, Glover plays guitar and mandolin. Her bandmates include Julian Smedley (guitar, violin, viola), Cary Black (bass), Bob Knetzger (Dobro, pedal steel) and Jeff Bush (percussion). The band gives us a passionate acoustic folk and Americana repertoire emphasizing prolific contemporary messages, thoughtful arrangements, graceful instrumentation, and relaxed vocals....Glover’s songs have concise expressions that evoke qualities of life. Song crafting is an art, and Denise Glover has succeeded...her solid approach has a reflective, poetic quality and potential for widespread appeal.” --Joe Ross, Roots Music Report, Jan 18, 2019
