What Once Was

    Lee DeWyze is a talented singer/songwriter who relies on melody and emotion to construct unique, memorable, and emotionally charged songs. DeWyze blends elements of many different styles and influences to create his own approach to the traditional typecast of acoustic singer/songwriter. He changes directions in mid-stride which makes his style of songwriting unique. DeWyze states, "I want a connection with my audience in the sense that any song I do reminds them of a specific moments in their lives-not mine...I want listeners to say 'Wow, he was there when that happened to me.' ...It's comforting to share my experiences and know that all the vivid, raw emotions that I felt are universal to all of as human beings." He also is focused on perfection and when his songs work, they touch on so many levels of the human condition that it is scary.His level of talent exceeds many artists twice his age, he never tires of doing any track until it's the way he feels it should be. Soulful, haunting and melodic are the drop words used to describe the music of DeWyze, but he hopes that the end product means so much more to listeners. He lives his life true to his music; his songs reflect his personal experiences but speak to all of us. Amongst the music genres of Folk, Pop, Rock, Alternative and Funk there lies a space of sonic soundscape that Lee DeWyze inhabits. Known for his energetic and thought provoking performances of well crafted and hooky acoustic material, DeWyze is an artist driven to succeed.
