???? Today, California-based musician DEAN M. COLLINS releases his first single taken from the same-titled album “Land Where The Wishes Come True”, to be released 06/16/2023 via Dr. Music Records. Featuring an exciting and entertaining blend of Country Music, Americana and Bluegrass, the singer-songwriter reflects on his eventful life as a Kentucky farmer’s son, Delta Air Lines captain and former U.S. Navy pilot, as well as a family man and musician. He is supported by renowned guest musicians who altogether have received more than 60 Grammy Awards. On the title track, bluegrass fiddle virtuoso Michael Cleveland and Justin Moses, who has won multiple awards as Dobro Player of the Year, accompany him as guest musicians. With their instruments, they give the track a unique flair, and towards the end, fitting for the closing of the message, they celebrate a triumphant musical finale with their dueling, fulminant solos. “Land Where The Wishes Come True” is a love letter to his father and traces the arc of his life. DEAN M. COLLINS experienced hard and debilitating moments but also great solidarity as the son of a farmer in his birthplace of Bardstown, Kentucky, where his family once sold their distillery to James and Joseph Beam. “Land Where The Wishes Come True” expresses the solid connections and friendships the musician has made throughout his varied life. These are precisely the bonds he deals with on his album with great sensitivity and acumen, whether between lovers, parents and their children, or the cohesion among farm workers. Beautifully and tenderly, the memories of the parental farm are processed in the title track, among others. Much like Woodie Guthrie’s iconic classic “This Land Is Your Land”, the song celebrates those who work hard against all odds and describes the farmer’s tough family life, caring for his family but also his rural workers and wanting to please everyone. Life always brings new challenges leading to complicated decisions as time passes, ultimately making the finite nature of our existence a reality. From this experience, new life desires arise, making the ever-growing American dream tangible on the journey to California. The ideal introduction to this musical masterpiece is now presented in the music video for the new single, produced by Arroyo Filmworks. Here, the meaning of the lyrics is brought to life in expressive imagery: https://youtu.be/6kDzRfOMAA4?list=PLWEYZURqjsHyEunz8JRq_7LhRFAO5d1cq

???? On the album “Land Where The Wishes Come True”, Kenny Aronoff’s (e.g. Johnny Cash, John Mellencamp, Lady Gaga) dynamic drumming provides the foundation along with bassist James LoMenzo (e.g. White Lion, Black Label Society, Megadeth), while Smokin’ Brett Resnick (e.g. Kacey Musgraves, Brookes & Dunn) gives the songs his own accents with the pedal steel guitar. The same applies to Justin Moses’ (e.g. Garth Brooks, Brad Paisley, Peter Frampton) harmonic dobro, mandolin and banjo playing, as well as Michael Cleveland’s (e.g. Béla Fleck, Flamekeeper, Alison Kraus) filigree playing of the bluegrass fiddle and Jimmy Zavala’s (e.g. Eurythmics, Bon Jovi, Tom Petty, Jeff Beck) brilliant harmonica playing. Through this project’s broad experience and musical class, the album unfolds a detailed sound cosmos of Country Music, Americana and Bluegrass, which also features Pop accents and references to musical greats such as R.E.M. and Paul McCartney. Recorded by Dave Jenkins and Ralph Cacciurri (e.g. Glenn Frey, Coldplay, Ludacris) at Uncommon Studios LA and Parhelion Studios, several of the 13 songs were mixed and produced with Thom Russo (e.g. Michael Jackson, Johnny Cash, Macy Gray). Gavin Lurssen, who has already refined albums by the Foo Fighters, Robert Plant or the Game Of Thrones soundtrack, is responsible for the mastering.
