About Dennis:
Dennis O'Hagan is an Irish/American songwriter and guitarist who has been active in the music scene for 30 years. Playing in various
indie/alternative bands over the years, and also as a solo artist, he has shared the stage with artists as diverse as the Violent Femmes, the Church, Blue Oyster Cult, Bruce Hornsby, Afghan Whigs, as well as many others. His most recent band, the Voodoo Loons, hailed from both the US and Ireland, have released two critically acclaimed albums, and are in rotation on SiriusXM as well as other global streaming outlets. In 2018 Dennis embarked on his Great Brewery Tour, which has continued on through 2021 with him playing solo/acoustic shows and sharing tales of his travels at craft breweries throughout the U.S... so far more than 200 breweries in 29 states. After each show he publishes a well read blog of his thoughts on the brewery and the beers he sampled that night, providing national exposure to regional breweries during a time of exploding craft beer tourism.
The tour has been so successful that it is rolling on into it’s fourth year, and at this point seems to have developed into a perpetual tour. In 2020 Dennis began work with an established production company to develop a reality show based on the tour, combining his brewery stops with tour shenanigans, and incorporating guest sit-ins with music legends from the various cities (e.g., While playing a brewery in Athens, GA Bill Berry from R.E.M might sit in, etc.). Just before shooting a pilot episode in New Orleans, COVID put the plans on hiatus, but they’re expected to resume in 2021.
Dennis O’Hagan’s Great Brewery tour scales to allow him to play craft breweries of any size, ranging from small cozy nano-breweries to giant venues such as Sierra Nevada’s huge compound in Asheville, NC. "Craft brewers are artists, and as such they and their patrons tend to be tuned in and have a deep appreciation not only for the art of making great beer, but also of music... so with me being a musician/songwriter and having a great appreciation of the brewer's art, there is this perfect mutual admiration that makes this whole experience very satisfying and
FUN for everyone involved.”
