More quotes by Brett Dennen
I want to write songs with meaning. I have high standards for my work.
Brett Dennen
I think most artists would agree, it's one thing to be playing in front of a crowd that's loving it, it's another thing to add cameras, but it's a really cool trade off to be on television.
Brett Dennen
Don't forget that love is all you came here for, not anything less. Need I say more?
Brett Dennen
I want to live the way I choose. It's all about happiness. I'm a happy person. But to find true happiness, peace within yourself and the world, that is something achieved in the moment. No matter the circumstance.
Brett Dennen
I have ideas for songs all the time, but musical ideas, like melodies, really come out when I'm in nature.
Brett Dennen
Being a songwriter or a painter you're definitely facing your fears. You're facing your fears because you're speaking your truth you're speaking from your heart. That's something that's not easy to do, you set yourself up for all sorts of criticism or vulnerability but that's why we do it.
Brett Dennen
The ocean inspires me because there's the energy of the water moving.

Brett Dennen
It's usually kids that normally don't have a chance to get to meet each other because they're separated by millions of different things.
Brett Dennen
I like fish and a lot of seaweed, but I don't eat bread or dairy or anything like that. It's kind of like in the macrobiotic world. I'm just a healthy eater who loves to juice.
Brett Dennen
I always liked playing music and I always wanted to be good at playing guitar. I always saw myself as an old man living in the mountains playing a guitar, but I didn't really turn that into a desire to be a professional musician or a singer or a rock star or anything like that.
Brett Dennen
Nature inspires me because it's so peaceful. It makes me have an inward experience. It makes me reflective and nostalgic.
Brett Dennen
I also love fall, when it starts to rain, or even just before the rain - that is the most inspiring thing.
Brett Dennen
I think the two biggest issues are world hunger and health, and all the things that stem from bad food.
Brett Dennen
I'm a big believer in that old cliché of thinking globally and acting locally.
Brett Dennen
When you're young that's when you feel like you can change the world. Then you get older and you buy a house and have kids, and you don't want to be so bold anymore.
Brett Dennen
I can write songs, but I'm not gonna really feel good about the song unless it feels like me, and I'm not gonna release a song or put it on an album or play it in concert unless it really feels like me.
Brett Dennen
I think there's a certain magic that comes from being creative.
Brett Dennen
It's cool to be healthy now! It's cool to, like, drink fresh juices and drink Kombucha and all that stuff.
Brett Dennen
I think for me to do a traditional sitting meditation I would really have to spend a couple weeks working at it. The only way I know how to efficiently, effectively meditate is by walking in nature.
