WHAT IT IS: A native of Warner Robins, Ga., Denning vividly remembers the moment he realized he wanted to pursue music: sitting in his dad’s truck at seven years old and hearing AC/DC for the first time. At 16, he started playing local bars and built a following, thanks to his distinctive songs and raucous guitar licks. He moved to Nashville in 2014 and signed a publishing deal with Jeremy Stover. After securing outside cuts by Jason Aldean, Justin Moore and Chase Rice, Denning signed a record deal in 2017. He’s currently in the studio working on his debut album.
