Through the superlative stroke of the ivories along with creativity from the soul of a man that
exudes sheer passion, Dennis Atkinson is one that brings absolute brilliance to any melody. Music is his
purpose; and in that he is defined. Harmonious, convivial, authentic, and cadent are just a few of the
major and minor chords that create the masterpiece for one of today’s most masterful musicians and
producers.
Born a native to the Philadelphia region, his humble beginnings were founded more than two
decades ago in a small local church. From the age of 10, with small fingers and a big dream, the music
began to come alive. As he began to grow up, placing his feet into the large footsteps of those that were
planted by legends and forerunners became his daily bread. Being greatly inspired by Quincy Jones,
Take 6, Mervyn E. Warren, The Manhattan Transfers, The Evereadys, Lang Lang, Oscar Peterson, Timbaland, Rodney
Jerkins, John P. Kee, and Hezekiah Walker; not withholding the tutelage and shepherding of Bishop
Jimmie A. Ellis III, he has propelled himself to set the obtainable course of the chief musician. And in
doing so from the church houses of Philadelphia to the House of Blues in Orlando, Dennis’ talents have
heightened beyond the seas where there are no limits. Coupled by his formal teaching at the Settlement
Music School and acceptance to Berklee College of Music,his timeless styles of gospel, R&B, classical, and jazz have proven to be insurmountable.
Dennis’ music has credits to the world acclaimed as well as to the local grass root artists that have
helped paved the way. The infusion of his unique sound and the preeminence of his skills have
transcended and attached themselves to the collaborations, recordings, and productions of Tony Moore
and Jehovah’s Chosen, Tia Pittman, Darius Coleman, Dionne Carole, Da Truth, Bilal, Ginuwine, and
Teddy Riley with his most recent entitlement being the CEO of D.L.A. Music Productions,
With the vivid and ambitious eyes of one that sees the world’s limits as only his stepping stones,
Dennis Atkinson’s passion and pursuit for incomparable music promises to be a journey that produces
anointed and unfeigned, desired and savored, radical yet graciously composed music that will touch
every life one melody at a time.
