Surpassing our wildest expectations on his newest record Cautionary Tales, Dean Johanesen truly outdid himself, and thankfully was kind enough to drop in for a full interview to discuss the inner workings of the record. For those potentially out of the loop, Dean Johanesen is a New York-born but now Florida-based artist who’s sincerely put something out of the box together on his newest record, Cautionary Tales. Infusing ideas, sounds, styles, and so much more dating back almost 100 years, this album embodies Circus Swing, Americana Roots, and a whole lot of passion. During our conversation with the artist, we took a deep dive into how it was all put together, what this upcoming year looks like for Dean, and many other topics. Of course we’re urging everyone out there to take a listen as soon as you can.
