Deke Spears

Perfection is Imperfect

About Me

Honest songs in the classic tradition of the Beatles. Deke Spears is a refreshing voice in the sea of todays post-melody monotany. Bringing elements of Dylan-esque storytelling and British creativity to the stage with a commanding, modern voice. Deke is resurrecting the "simple yet profound" approach to songwriting. With memorable sing-alongs and thoughtful, lyrics, his songs are sure to strike a chord in the heart of every listener. The 24 year old is taking his solo/acoustic show to a new level with every performance. A full band is still in the making but you can hear Deke play every part from drums to keys on his new album "Let Love Shine". Deke wrote, engineered and produced all of the material on the 12 song record.
