Dean Nelson

When I was a kid, my parents asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up and I said, “A blacksmith.” My dad told me, “That’s dumb.” I responded, “You want to see dumb?” And then I got into music… “What’s the point of doing this if you don’t break?” He leaned forward, messaging his neck. “What’s the point? Because I want to do this, what other reason is there?” Dean Nelson is a quicksilver Singer/Songwriter from Phoenix, Arizona. His music is played on late night road trips and before first dates. His music ranges from heartfelt lyrics recalling a night in with a soulmate to a stadium filled with screaming fans.
Dean’s stream of conscious lyrics has a distinctive tone in storytelling. Much like his voice, he’s trying to convey something with tone. There is an intentional ambiguity to the music. It’s as if the music were religiously honed in, and in the moment of recording, a fresh take was added to give the songs a sense of unbridled interpretation.
