More quotes by Brett Dennen
Don't forget that love is all you came here for, not anything less. Need I say more?
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
The people at festivals are much more open to dance and just sing along. They come right up to the stage and they're very thankful. That's one thing I really appreciate about the yoga culture, that the people are very thankful. They come up to you as much as any fan would, but they express sincere gratitude and I appreciate that.
Brett Dennen
What I strive to do with songwriting is be really honest, authentic and try to be open and share that with people. I choose that over trying to be clever, poetic, or lyrical.
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 also love fall, when it starts to rain, or even just before the rain - that is the most inspiring thing.
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.
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
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 can't really write unless I'm full of inspiration. And even then I can't write unless I have some alone time.
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
Bringing up issues that are hard to deal with is a challenge for me, and I think that's what draws me to song writing.
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 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 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
Nature inspires me because it's so peaceful. It makes me have an inward experience. It makes me reflective and nostalgic.
Brett Dennen
I think there's a certain magic that comes from being creative.
Brett Dennen
I think food is the great equalizer. Other than the ocean and the air, food is the thing that we all share in common. I think along with that comes the question of why are some people starving, and why do some people produce more food than they need, and why is food going to waste.
Brett Dennen
I come from a place of sincerity. I write about what I see and feel. I write about what I want, I don't have a political agenda. Politics may enter into a song but it always comes from the heart.
