His five previous CD releases and a string of chart-topping singles have earned Denny a steadfast following. His most popular single, Lights of the City, garnered a SESAC national airplay award. Musical colleagues have long relied upon his abilities.

In addition to his work as a producer, he is credited both as guitarist and recording engineer on several Grammy nominated releases.

'Dreams Like This' once again finds Denny among friends, in the ranks of world–class musicians, including Chester Thompson (Genesis, Santana, Frank Zappa); Chris Kent (Take 6, Larry Carlton); Glen Caruba (Kirk Whalum, Glen Frey); Pat Coil (Pat Metheny, Michael McDonald), and fellow artists Dan Moretti and Rob McGaha.

Every artist owns a desire to craft a project that most perfectly represents the substance of their God-given creativity. It becomes a very personal s tatement, and often, the work for which  they are best–known. For Denny Jiosa, the release of Dreams Like This is a defining moment, the product not only of five years of work since his las t release, but a faithful rendition of his musical influences and tastes. “THIS is the album I’ve always wanted to make!” says Jiosa, and it shows.

“I started writing for this project almost immediately after the completion of Body2Body,” Denny muses. “I love all the albums that I created for my previous record label, 1201 Music, but I had begun to realize that my musical interests had a wider range than the  format I’d been writing for. My early influences stretched all the  way from Wes Montgomery to Carlos Santana. That’s quite a  distance. I wanted to make an album that captured all those  things that made me want to play music in the first place.” 

You’ll find those flavors here: straight-ahead jazz, Latin, smooth jazz and cinematic landscapes all unfold effortlessly giving us a glimpse of Denny’s prodigious musical vocabulary. He has an uncanny way of expressing deep emotions through the twists, turns and nuances of his seductive melodies. The song Chill Pill opens the CD with a funky contemporary groove with some surprises. Embracing the Fire sizzles with high-voltage Latin energy. I Am Roxane, which the enhanced CD also features as a full length video, smolders with provocative sensuality and you’ll want to savor the languorous The Glass Half Full like a glass of fine wine.

The centerpiece of this album, however, may be Denny’s lusciously smooth, masterfully soulfulrendition of Sunny, which features the original composer and performer, Bobby Hebb contributing scat vocals. Denny recalls, “I’ve loved that song since fi rst hearing it on the radio in 1966. A friend introduced me to  Bobby, who agreed to come to my studio to listen to the version I’d recorded of his song. Not only did he give his overwhelming approval, he wanted to sing on the track! Nothing could’ve made an album about my musical dreams more complete.”

“God blessed me with a passion for music; I knew I was to play music from very early on… it was written on my heart.” When Denny looks inside, Dreams Like This encapsulates the music he finds written there.
