DENM first made an impactful splash while dropping his Slum Beach Denny LP- DENM’s sparkling debut album which hit the scene in 2021.  Garnering out of the box recognition from coveted playlists including the cover of Spotify’s “Beach Vibes.” Today, Slum Beach Denny has tallied over 25 million streams, and counting! The genre-bending, SoCal musician, songwriter, and producer blends a unique recipe of hazy daze optimism and suburban beach influence into a modern-day melting pot of hip-hop beats, dubby rhythms, and catchy vocal hooks with a bonafide street mentality.   DENM possesses the edge and wit of an artist aware of the realities of society, while addressing his own personal values and tongue in cheek commentary on the quest for the American Dream.   

Quickly and deservedly, he’s become a coveted, go-to producer amongst his core constituents, helming the Grammy-winning Best Reggae Album of 2022, SOJA’s Beauty in the Silence, as well as a co-write and production on HIRIE’s top-scoring single, “Respect,” plus his high flight collaboration on “Rage,” with Dirty Heads, Travis Barker, and The Interrupters.  DENM also flexes his production skill set on out of the box Bounce phenom Big Freedia on the song “Strut.” 

DENM’s 2nd release Slum Beach Posse Vol. 1, a seven-song collaborative EP with special guests Slightly Stoopid, Landon McNamara, Jesse James, and Benny Ranks, dropped in 2023 spawning the unmistakable single “Wild Trip” recorded during a surf and studio bender on Oahu’s North Shore with creative conspirator and big wave surfing legend Landon McNamara.”  

DENM’s music has commanded notable synchs on several hit series, including Netflix’s Outer Banks, and All-American, and FOX’s Rescue: HI-Surf, and Prime’s Surf Girls Hawai’i. All of this comes ahead of a series of new singles preceding his forthcoming sophomore LP and a U.S. tour that has DENM hitting over 30 outdoor amphitheaters with likeminded cohorts, Pepper and Iration on the ‘Daytrippin in Paradise Summer Tour.’  

“It’s all becoming more of what I had originally envisioned,” DENM says.  “Everything is manifesting into part of this really cool trajectory to take the listener to places that I like to go.” 

Denm has been known to create music in unique places, from Hawaii’s North Shore paradise of Oahu, hanging with Landon McNamara and friends, making music with the Slum Beach Posse between surf sets, or in the urban low-rider landscape of B-REAL from CYPRESS HILL’s Smoke-box studios in the alleys of Downtown Los Angeles. You may also find him behind the board and microphone at Rock Mafia Studios, with producers, Tim James and Antonina Armato, down the coast in Santa Monica, CA or in the Pacific, on a fishing boat drinking brews and writing tunes with Pepper’s Kaleo Wassman, such as the new album’s first single “Where I’m Going,” released on July 26, 2024.  Places where days-long, beats-making all-nighters in the studio are routine.  And where autobiographical references in his songwriting, reflecting, if not celebrating the seedier side of life, are the standard. 

“My songs are about healing from past traumas.  Coming of age.  Honest songs about struggles with addiction.  Songs about tweakers walking down the street really fast.  The highs and lows of life, and love, and fatherhood,” DENM says.  “Also, just being a mouthpiece for art and my surroundings, with songs about mental health, and the struggle to keep your vision clear and your head straight.  It’s a little bit of everything.” 

DENM spent his youth as an admittedly troubled teen bouncing from beach town to beach town in Southern California, teaching himself guitar at 14.  His itinerant residencies in San Diego, Santa Barbara, and Isla Vista marked a challenging personal narrative full of life’s harshest lessons.  They also fostered deeply genuine and eclectic sources of inspiration for his multifaceted talents. 

Whether it’s crafting his own scintillating repertoire, or collaborating with a host of admiring peers like Slightly Stoopid, Dirty Heads and SOJA, DENM brings a relentless, undeniable vibe of authenticity to his work.  Just three short years since his debut, he has risen to the upper tier of the SoCal scene, volleying his time between sought-after producer and songwriter, cutting edge recording artist, and magnetic live performer.  Now, he just wants to keep rolling. 

“I want to make music that makes the world move and groove,” says DENM. “If I just stay in that flow state, it’s only going to get better and more fun from here.” 

Tunnel Vision is quickly becoming Southern California's favorite new Surf, Reggae, Ska band. The band is comprised of four musicians who grew up in the San Clemente, area with instruments in their hands and skateboards and surfboards under their feet.

Growing up in SoCal, the band was heavily influenced by the Punk Rock, Reggae and Ska music of bands like The Descendents, Black Flag, Misfits, Sublime, Slightly Stoopid, The Expendables, NoFX, Rancid, and Reel Big Fish. They've incorporated a bit from all of their influences to create their own original sound that pays homage to the sounds of those that came before them while blazing their own path and style. This new style was on full display with their 2018 LAW Records release, Days Away.

The band has released their 3 song EP, Shipwrecked, which blends all 3 songs to tell the story of hope, loss, and love with an upbeat reggae, ska and punk style that only Tunnel Vision can pull off.
