Born and raised in South Bend, Indiana, Southside Denny is a legendary bluesrocker and acoustic fingerstyle player with ten albums to his credit. He is also the father and bandleader of The Snyders. He began growing his reputation in the early 1980’s being often associated with and seen on stage with numerous Chicago musical heroes.
Denny performed as opening act for many stellar acts such as Ray Charles, Lonnie Mack, Albert Collins and what resembles a who’s who list of Chicago blues acts. In 1984 he and his band, Southside Denny and the Skintones scored a regional hit with a protest song called ‘Ethanol Stinks’. Before disbanding in 1989 the trio recorded two albums and played blues club circuits throughout several Midwestern states and into the Canadian provinces of Ontario, Saskatchewan and Alberta.
