Bruce Dennis is a Hamilton-based singer/songwriter who has played and toured with a number of Australasian and International artists. After working extensively with blues icons Midge Marsden, Phil Manning and Sonny Day, Bruce’s passion for ‘roots’ music coupled with his emergence as a songwriter led to him becoming an in-demand opening act for artists like US alt-country bluesmen Bo Ramsey, Kevin Gordon and Kinky Friedman, the Warratahs and Wayne Mason. He also featured in a Radio New Zealand series on original NZ music, recording tracks for that at RNZ’s Helen Young studios.
Bruce has long been recognised locally for his soulful voice and musicianship and these latest sessions feature some well-known players at the peak of their powers.
He currently fronts the local cover band The Great Brain Robbers, who also play some of Bruce's original songs. They can be seen regularly at Digger's Bar in Hood St.
In 2007 he independently released his first album All Our Days.
