Singer-songwriter Rick Denzien takes to the
road with his third CD release, Exit 21, an evolution of his
unique style of cross-over rock with an appeal similar to REM,
Lit, and Match Box 20. Grown past the unchanneled adolescent
angst of grunge, the music of Rick Denzien crosses over
boundaries and generations, captivating the sensibilities and
ears of both young and musically mature audiences.
The thought for the Exit 21 CD came while driving the
German Autobahn.
"We were on our way to Switzerland - had no idea
where we were going but we saw a sign for a little town called
Ausfahrt. So I'm the navigator and looking for this little
town on a German map - I can't find it.... We are flying like
160 miles per hour and here comes another sign for Ausfahrt.
So I figure this is a good sized town, and study the map some
more. But then after a few kilometers, another sign, then
another, and another all pointing to Ausfahrt. Must be some
huge city. I'm thinking this place must be the size of New
York with all these exit signs."
They never did find the Ausfahrt city limits because
Ausfahrt means exit in German.
"Dah... I felt pretty stupid when they told me
that, but it was pretty funny."
Exit 21 is that place on the fringe where the age of
innocence meets the age of accountability and where opposing
truths collide - smashing old realities and creating new ones.
