Monica Dennington Music

Before her dramatic entrance onto the national stage as a cutting-edge, Pharisee-kicking, tell-it-like-it-is preacher and internet communications innovator, singer-songwriter Monica Dennington first found her voice on the stages of Kansas City and in the emerging local Christian music scene in the late 1990's. Her bold fusion of stormy, piano-driven songwriting, raw, dramatic vocals, and powerful, poetic lyrics were met with enthusiasm. After her first two cofeehouse gigs, Dennington was invited to open for Sixpence None The Richer at the legendary New Earth Coffeehouse in early 1999, when their mainstream hit "Kiss Me" was topping the charts worldwide. With the ensuing, almost-instant local recognition, she continued to perform and write vigorously.

Writing and recording "on the run"—sometimes from a loft stage, sometimes from a hotel room—most of Dennington's music to date consists of live recordings and songs recorded in her mobile studio.
