Dennis Kolen is a young singer/songwriter from Rotterdam/The Netherlands. People from this small country are traditionally notorious for being adept travelers. Wherever Fate places them – on the ocean-going vessels of old or their modern mobile home counterparts – they are courageous people. Dennis Kolen had the courage to believe in Stockfisch, and that's why he found the Northeim Goldmine.
Dennis Kolen grew up with the music of his fathers vinyl collection: Jackson Browne, James Taylor or Paul Simon had been Dennis´ musical vision and orientation. Above all his influences came from the protagonists of the West Coast Music in the seventies: The Eagles, Poco, Crosby, Stills & Nash... - listen to the great harmony vocals on this SACD!
This singularly expressive voice belongs to a man who fears not the great ones, the likes of the Beatles or Joni Mitchell. He simply reaches out for what all great artists pass on. This Northeim Goldmine has musical gold on offer profusely – musical pearls on a string.
