Description
“The Number One Baritone on Airgigs” Think of Gregory Porter or Nat King Cole, or Ron Richardson then you’ve got Dennis DeMille, an exceptional Baritone/Bass Singer with over 25 years of experience in bands, studios, TV, Radio and Voice overs. Born on the same street as Dame Shirley Bassey and raised in Tiger Bay, Cardiff from St Lucian Parents, he grew up on music from the Caribbean, Africa, The UK and the USA. After moving to Sheffield in the 90’s to study Film, he rubbed shoulders with the founder of Warp Records and also watched Jarvis Cocker go from a bloke on the next table in a pub to global superstar with Pulp . Dennis was involved as a DJ in the Pirate radio scene, bringing underground music to Sheffield. His Funk band supported acts passing through the city and he even supported Freak-power, which featured Norman Cook, who became Fat Boy Slim. Dennis and Norman spoke in length after that gig at Sheffield’s Leadmill, discussing their mutual love of hip hop, break-beat, house music and the junglist scene which rebranded itself as Drum & Bass. After working as a sales manager for many years, he decided that it was the right time to ditch the day job in 2013 and dive headfirst into working as a full time singer despite being warned by all the naysayers, that it would be a crazy thing to do. He proved his doubters wrong and was featured in Britain’s Got Talent 2018 where he made it all the way to the Live Semi Finals as part of a singing duo called The Ratpackers. His voice work was used by Sky TV Formula One as the music bed for the post race montage during coverage of the British Grand Prix at Silverstone in 2017 and also on Sky Sports Premier League Football and BT Sports Rugby League. More recently in 2022, he provided the vocals for a group of Youtube animators and composers called Rise Guys by The Chalkeaters, which has had approximately Half a Million views! He has a his own studio space in Somerset and currently works as a solo artiste and is part of a duo currently working on being featured on a leading high profile TV talent show. His versatility means that he is happy to work within any genre and is confident in live and recorded situations either with bands or as a soloist.
