YOU CAN LABEL ME JUST MAKE SURE THAT ITS BIG ENOUGH
...cause theres no chance to nail Dean Collins to one style. On his debut album "Go Big Or Go Home" you can hear the influences of rock, country and blues as well as soul music. The album features Johnny Hiland, Dave Talbot and Andy Leftwich from Nashville TN and The world famous Harlem Gospel Choir from New York.
Band/artist history

Have you performed in front of an audience?
Playing Live is the best!...to reproduce what you have done at the recordings - and let it sound a little different is the challenge...I wouldnt make any records if I couldnt play Live worldwide!
Your musical influences
Everyone who makes good music and could live in my neigbourhood. As a Producer Im listening to everything from Abba over Springsteen across Eminem and ending with Zappa...
Most of all - I guess my favorite hero is ERIC CLAPTON - cuse he has the freedom to change his style without any clue!
What equipment do you use?
I play a lot of things and I believe that theres no bad equipment - just the wrong Song!
My favorites:
1967 Fender Telecaster guitar
1957 Fender Tweed Twin Amp
T-Rex FX Pedals
Cry Baby Wah
AND THATS IT!
Anything else?
Enjoy listening to my songs!
Hope to see you soon!
