Bio HerePreviously opening for diverse acts such as Fugazi and Jeff Buckley, Fire-Dean's neo-acoustic live set is alternately Sarah Vaughan, and John Belushi. Using foot pedals to trigger samples, as well as good ole fashioned neurosis to trigger a plethora of wildly unfounded insecurities, Fire-Dean ditched the idea of ever becoming a traditional singer/songwriter in favor of creating a show punctuated by cheap laughs, loops, and his trademark opera. A raconteur whose 'no-one-gets-out-underneath-the-radar' stage tactics often get sabotaged with a beautifull chorus.
