A 27 year-old guitarist is hoping to conquer a musical world ruled by Britain’s Got Talent and the X-Factor – by attempting to get into the charts by word-of-mouth alone.
London Warren Dean is an anonymous rock guitarist and songwriter who is funding his own albums and career through busking up and down the country. He has sang his heart out from day to day barely making minimum wage until the benevolent studio owner gave him one week’s recording in the East End of London, paid in the form of coins but most importantly, donations from the general public.
And, after ‘touring’ up and down the country aiming to impress strangers enough to part with their small change, the album is now finished. Aptly titled, ‘Who Is Warren Dean?’ is an album packed with catchy riffs and sing-along choruses and is just what the rock music scene needs right now.
The secretive man, who’s known for not fully appearing in photos or videos, has thanked the members of the public who helped him on his journey.
“Thank you all so much, as without you this would not have been possible,” Dean said. “It may be the complete opposite to the Britain’s got Talent, X Factor way the public usually contribute to the creation of a recording artist but in some small way I think the principal is the same.
“So if you happen to remember the guy singing and playing his heart out just for you, wearing his red converse trainers, thanks for your pennies, and in some cases pounds as you have made this recording possible. I hope some of you remember where you first heard these songs, literally on a street in your hometown! Keep rockin, WD”
