On the next Live from Where?

Dewan sings original compositions while playing the accordion and zither (including an electrified 88 string instrument of his own design). The late great BBC producer John Peel said "Dewan is an American original and truly a Renaissance man." PopMatters says "Brian Dewan rocks out on his self-crafted 88-string electric zither... if contemporary parlor music with unusual zither accompaniment is what you seek, there's truly nothing else like it." Dewan offers a unique bridge between the tradition and the contemporary, displaying a love of folk music and a distinctly personal vision. This concert takes place at Radio Station WPKN.
