I just upgraded to Captain on the Airbus 350 and rode the Jumpseat home. Off to New Zealand on Thursday! What new songs will pop up in my head on this new World Tour? Here’s another great review from Maverick Magazine. Read the entire review below and follow the links to enjoy the songs. “The Hammond B3 Organ and Steel Guitar really give that big production some Country flair. It’s an upbeat start to Collins’ brilliant 5th studio album which features some of the finest Country musicians on the planet. […] A great Country record, from the heart, with a solid production.” ~ Maverick Magazine 💿 DEAN M. COLLINS “Land Where The Wishes Come True” Digifile CD: ► /?p=21739/#stores 🎧 DEAN M.

🤠 @DeanMCollinsMusic inks deal with Dr. Music Records and pays tribute to the #AmericanDream with his Country Music #album “Land Where The Wishes Come True” 🎙 Today, California-based musician DEAN M. COLLINS and Dr. Music Records are thrilled to announce their collaboration for releasing the new album “Land Where The Wishes Come True”, dropping on 06/16/2023. Featuring an exciting and entertaining blend of #CountryMusic , #Americana , and #Bluegrass , the singer-songwriter reflects on his eventful life as a Kentucky farmer’s son, Delta Air Lines captain and former U.S. Navy pilot, as well as a family man and musician. He is supported by renowned guest musicians who altogether have received more than 60 Grammy Awards. Kenny Aronoff’s (e.g. Johnny Cash, John Mellencamp, Lady Gaga) dynamic drumming provides the foundation along with bassist James LoMenzo (e.g. White Lion, Black Label Society, Megadeth), while Smokin’ Brett Resnick (e.g. Kacey Musgraves, Brookes & Dunn) gives the songs his own accents with the pedal steel guitar. The same applies to Justin Moses’ (e.g. Garth Brooks, Brad Paisley, Peter Frampton) harmonic dobro, mandolin and banjo playing, as well as Michael Cleveland’s (e.g. Béla Fleck, Flamekeeper, Alison Kraus) filigree playing of the bluegrass fiddle and Jimmy Zavala’s (e.g. Eurythmics, Bon Jovi, Tom Petty, Jeff Beck) brilliant harmonica playing. Recorded by Dave Jenkins and Ralph Cacciurri (e.g. Glenn Frey, Coldplay, Ludacris) at Uncommon Studios LA and Parhelion Studios, several of the 13 songs were mixed and produced with Thom Russo (e.g. Michael Jackson, Johnny Cash, Macy Gray). Gavin Lurssen, who has already refined albums by the Foo Fighters, Robert Plant or the Game Of Thrones soundtrack, is responsible for the mastering. Together with DEAN M. COLLINS’ vocals, they all provide a clear and inviting sound that turns the album with meaningful lyrics into an extraordinary Country Music masterpiece. 📽 Kick-off is on 03/02/2023, with the release of the title track as the first single, along with a splendid music video bringing the meaning of the lyrics to life in expressive imagery. 👉🏻 / anmcollins.com

Good morning! I wrote this song about the amazing women who made a difference in my life and of course that starts with my mom. The link to the music video follows. It was shot in Bardstown, Kentucky and Pasadena, California and features an improbable team of musicians. Check it out! 🎥🎬🎞️https://youtu.be/FPX7e0Yhkls?feature=shared

Life doesn’t always pan out like you want it to. Sometimes, a chapter ends and what seems traumatic at the time turns into a beautiful, new beginning. Don’t give up. This song reminisces about the slow death of a relationship, the sadness in accepting its end and the first glimmers of hope that something wonderful could be just over the horizon. If you think about it, life gives us a series of choices of when to hold on and when to let go; and with any luck, we have the wisdom to know which one to choose. If this resonates with you, there are twelve more songs telling powerful stories and featuring some of the finest musicians in the world. We would be honored if you let us take you to a place rarely traveled in Country and Americana. “With an incredible blend of the best of Country, Americana, and Bluegrass moods combined with vivid stories, Collins perfectly captures his stories in song.” ~ @allcountrynews Photo by @iameliserobertson “Land Where The Wishes Come True” is out now. The reviews are here and see what critics are raving about. It would be an honor to have you join us on this musical journey through the heartland - and the heart. 💿 DEAN M.

When you take off on March 16th, cross the International Date Line and land in Sydney on March 18th and realize the Luck of the Irish isn’t with you because an entire holiday has disappeared without a trace! Note to self; don’t fly to Australia on Christmas Eve.

Here is a sweet clip of my niece waving at ‘Uncle Dean’ flying over head. When I was her age, I waved every time I saw a helicopter because my dad’s best friend flew them in Vietnam. Kids are the best.
