Formed in 2013, The Corey Dennison Band is a favorite attraction at Chicago blues venues, including five years of twice-weekly appearances at Kingston Mines. Led by Corey Dennison’s soulful voice and muscular guitar, the band released its self-titled studio debut for the legendary Delmark Records in 2016 after honing 13 original songs night after night on the bandstand. Corey’s decade-long stint with Carl Weathersby and Gerry Hundt’s tenure with Nick Moss are evident on the disc but blend effortlessly into a dynamic new Chicago sound, then anchored by fellow Moss alum Nik Skilnik and drummer Joel Baer. Critics and radio polls responded favorably as the album garnered glowing reviews and constant worldwide airplay, netting chart positions on the Roots Music and Living Blues Radio Reports. Nominations followed suit, with a nod for Best Emerging Artist from the Blues Music Awards, a pair from Blues Blast Magazine, and Grammy balloting. The album also won "Le Prix Blues" from esteemed l'Academie du Jazz in Paris, France. The band's hard work shines through on their follow-up Delmark album, "Night After Night," which was released on CD and LP to the delight of fans and critics alike. The current rhythm section includes veteran groovemeister Rick King and the infalliably funky Aaron Whittier on bass. The strength of the band’s repertoire is matched only by the charisma of the stage show; it’s not uncommon to see Corey belting out the blues, unamplified, in the heart of the audience while the band steps in time to the groove. It’s not novelty for these musicians and entertainers, however, it’s exactly where they want to be.
