About Dean Johanesen
In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. When I was a child, my mother would let me sit on her lap while she played the guitar. She would let me strum while she changed chords and sang. This initial experience is something I remember that inspired me to learn music, perform, write etc. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Jason Isbell, Southeastern Thelonious Monk, Straight No Chaser Original Motion Picture Soundtrack Tom Waits, Blood Money (Remastered) I picked these 3 records as records I have played on repeat many times. They are a perfect blend of my songwriter influences (Isbell), jazz affinity (Monk) and my love of dark stories and unique songwriting (Waits.) Django should be on here too... Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “The Wizard of Menlo Park” This song highlights my current writing style of history in song. The War of Currents and Topsy the elephant inspiring this composition. Edison's actual voice on the recording a perfect find for me on the track as well as the art by Beatrice Coron.
