DEAN RÖK Blends Blues Grit with Anthemic Flair on Bad Wedding Day

After years of touring Europe under other artistic identities, Porto-based rocker DEAN RÖK decided it was time for something different. Declaring a new chapter in his sonic career, and describing it as "the awakening of a man who decided to step into his own power," DEAN isn’t holding back in this new era. A month ago, he unleashed his cracking debut single, Falling in the Dark, and now returns with another absolute banger in the form of Bad Wedding Day. Let's dive in!

Navigating the edges of modern blues with gritty guitars and freedom, Bad Wedding Day is an anthemic powerhouse of a tune. It's weighty and full of depth and, with the addition of a brass section, explodes with energy and flair. 

A bold and hard-hitting piece of music, Bad Wedding Day bears the scars of a musician whose journey through life is infused into every track he creates. There's an honesty and a ruggedness to the song that lands with sincerity - a feat few artists seem to be able to pull off these days.

"This isn't nostalgia blues, and it's not polished pop-rock either," says DEAN, reflecting on his latest release. "It's gritty, rhythmic, and body-driven - music that moves before it explains itself."

With hopefully more new material on the way, DEAN RÖK is someone worth keeping a close eye (and ear) on moving forward!
