Originally from Mechanicsville, Virginia, Dean Fields was discovered by The Miami Herald’s Evelyn McDonnell at a songwriting event in Florida. “Go, so you can say you saw him when,” She wrote in the Miami Herald, “He sings with the tender high tenor of Tim Buckley and the plain-spoken poetry of Jim Croce." He was soon named “Best of Miami” by local press, picked to play at the premier of Billboard Live, bailed on graduate school and dedicated himself to performing and writing. “I just woke up one day and said, ‘screw this, all I want to do is play music.” Songs on the Mend, the latest solo acoustic release was written in bars, venues, and hotels while on tour performing over 500 shows since hitting the road in 2003. The 10 songs capture the raw honest expression of a young artist on the rise. Columbia’s Free Times agrees, "Dean Fields writes lyrics like Leonard Cohen and sings like Jeff Buckley. It’s no surprise that there’s a serious buzz on this Virginia singer-songwriter"
Fields is fueled by a single-minded passion to play sharing the stage with Bruce Hornsby, Hootie and the Blowfish, KT Tunstall, Julie Roberts, Cake, Ingram Hill, Yonder Mountian String Band, Josh Kelley, Robert Randolph and the Family Band, Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe, John Hiatt, Aqualung, Cary Brothers, Tracy Bonham, Lisa Loeb, Pat McGee Band, Carbonleaf, Angie Aparo, Virginia Coalition, Rusted Root, Madeleine Peyroux, and many others. His debut album Imitations garnered rave reviews and is one of CDBaby’s top selling albums. His music is being featured on MTV’s Real World, Road Rules and Sorority Life. Dean Fields is on the rise.

DEAAAAAAAAAAAAN! How are you biznatch? Love the new songs. Still sad I didn't see you live, while I was home! That just means you have to come to Japan! ;)
another good song sir! last time i saw you live i remember a tune with something about "hounds with tails between their legs" or something to that effect, which song was that?
"What kind of stuff do you think they have at the art museum?" Hey, finally finished that 2 month long project. So we should hang on Friday or Saturday. You down?
I hate to break up a good run of comments by good looking girls, but I wanted to chime in. Figure Drawings sounds great. If the rest of the record sounds half as good, you should be proud. And wealthy.
dean, shit, it's been about forever! probably since you stopped thru WONC! can't wait to hear the whole new album. I've moved to NYC this past year...but sadly I already have tickets to a conor oberst show the night you're in town...hopefully you'll have more shows in the area. Hope you've been well! all the best!
Hey man! New song sounds great. Looking forward to the album. I just saw that Deepwells show you posted. That's about 10 minutes from where my folks live. Remind me to tell them to go when it gets closer. I'm sure they'll offer up some local hospitality if you need it.
