Touring Musician Posts Norfolk Video Online

While in Norfolk on February 27 to play a concert at Infinity Hall, folk musician Brett Dennen wandered the downtown area and made a short video, which has recently been posted to YouTube. In it he comments drolly on the nonexistent rush-hour traffic, the overly solicitous signs and the friendliness of the locals—who remained for the most part invisible on that wintry afternoon.

Dennen (34) is from Northern California. His sold-out show at Infinity was taped by CPTV for Infinity Hall LIVE, whose third season will be broadcast on public television starting in July 2014.

“I’m definitely looking for ways to do more than just play in the big cities,” Dennen said in an interview before the February concert. “I would rather go places and play where people live that would normally have to be the ones who have to travel a couple of hours to go see a concert. I would rather just go play to them, you know, bring the music to them instead of making them come to me in wherever…New York City or Boston, whatever the city may be.”
