John Dendy
is a songwriter in the tradition of Bob Dylan, Tom Waits, Lucinda
Williams, John Prine, and Townes van Zandt, but he's not as old as they
are.
He plays his songs on upright bass or guitar, boiling a substantial,
punk-seasoned stew of folk, blues, country, and jazz. He is often
accompanied by Clay Scott on violin.
His lyrics are smart, edgy, and sometimes irreverent. Their internal
and slanted rhyme even betrays a rap influence, in structure if not in
content.
John grew up in Alabama, went to school in Misissippi, and has been in
Montana for 13 years. He dropped out of grad school in both chemical
engineering and philosophy, pursuing instead a career in authenticity.
