About Me


Denny Mishler is a musician and producer from Las Vegas, NV. Mishler has aquired years of live performing, studio session experience and an education in music and has been featured in many major publications including Guitar Player Magazine (April '05).
In 2000, at only 18 years old, his first solo album and subsequent single of the same title, Last Rain (crediting Mishler as the producer and performer of every instrument) sky-rocketed to number 3 on the Instrumental Rock Charts at MP3.com, all the while performing with his local cover band.
In 2003, after spending some time in New York recording with the now defunct band, Badwater, Denny shared the stage with 80's metal giants, Quiet Riot, in front of a crowd of more than 5,000 people. The same year, he won the award for Northern Nevada's 'Best Guitarist' at the 2003 Stockmen's Battle of the bands in Elko, NV with his longtime friends and band at the time, Damn Skippy.
Denny recently joined the up-and-coming band band from Las Vegas, A Penny for Jane .
In less than six months, A Penny for Jane has already garnered a slew of local and national press and has shared the stage with national acts such as Lifehouse , Colbie Caillat , Vanessa Carleton and Fuel .
The music of A Penny for Jane has appeared on the WB, ABC, CBS, NBC, and Lifetime on shows like Smallville , The OC , Threat Matrix , and America's Top Model . A Penny for Jane is currently in the studio with veteran musician and producer Mike Marsh (Dashboard Confessional, The Agency, founder of Perch Records) and will soon follow it's national EP release with a West Coast Tour in Summer 2008.
"On his current demo, Mishler plays a variety of styles—showing influences such as Joe Satriani and Dimebag Darrell—and offers a burning unaccompanied solo. Armed with impressive speed-picking and arpeggio skills, Mishler tempers his over-the-top chops with well-crafted melodies and interesting compositions." - Guitar Player Magazine
