Dennis Holmes

Dennis Holmes has been professionally performing for 25 years, from his days in
garage bands and in nightclubs, to opening up for national acts, and recording
radio jingles for businesses across the U.S. Throughout the years Dennis has
consistently pleased his audiences with his amazing vocal and percussive acoustic
guitar work, playing in larger venues as well as intimate nightclub settings.
His original music which has been released through Quickstar Productions on
their Chill Out series, has received national air time on radio stations across the
U.S.
Originally hailing from Pennsylvania, he started his professional career at age 16,
singing in bars and clubs with older musicians. Jumping from band to band as a
front man/vocalist and not really making his way, Dennis honed his acoustic guitar
skills and songwriting abilities and set out to make a living performing as a solo
act. That act would have him performing in England, Spain, Denmark, Norway, The
U.S. Virgin Islands, as well as the United States over the next 15 years.

In 2005 Dennis stepped away from music full time to pursue law enforcement and
entered the Philadelphia Police Academy. After graduation he was placed in one
of the busiest districts in the city of Philadelphia.

In 2008 he moved to the beautiful small Fjord town of Haines, Alaska. Although he
was still policing, he also constructed a recording studio and continued to record
his own music, but still wasn’t as satisfied as when he was performing live.

In 2009 Dennis left Haines, and the police department, and jumped back into
touring full time and continues to perform music around the world.
