Born in the United States of America, now based in London, 15-year-old Denis Coleman is rapidly becoming one of the most promising emerging pop artists on the U.K. scene. He began his musical career aged 5, when he first picked up a violin. Discovering a passion for the discipline, he began studying at the Royal College of Music, where he also began composing music. At the age of 10, he wrote his first pop song.
Just a few years later, he won the nationwide song writing competition of Open Mic U.K. with his original song Radio (written age 12), attracting attention from talent scouts and tv shows. Denis is now the brand ambassador for The Power of Muzik, a mental health and anti-bullying campaign founded by celebrity vocal coach CeCe Sammy. He has also been touring the U.K., visiting schools and sharing his experience with music, as well as talking to students about how to overcome adversity today.
This year has seen Denis making hits in the studio writing tracks with top U.K. producers including Red Triangle (The Vamps, Ronan Keating, David Guetta, James Arthur), Joe Hartwell Jones (Usher, Adele, Ellie Goulding) and Raphaella (Rudimental, Gorgon City). He released his debut single You in September 2018 and followed up with the highly anticipated Soft Spot in March 2019.
Now this budding young talent is returning to Liverpool on July 20th for what promises to be a superb evening at Zanzibar, one that is sure to delight after his support slot to The Vamps in early May. Check website for details.
