Dan Dinnen & Shorty – Jeff’s Shed
Dan Dinnen & Shorty – Jeff’s Shed
Format: CD – Digital
Label: Shedjam Records
Release: 2025
Melbourne-based singer/songwriter/guitarist/harmonica player Dan Dinnen and drums/percussion powerhouse Anthony “Shorty” Shortte are back with a new album, entitled ‘Jeff’s Shed.’ It’s a raw, rolling session that captures the grit and groove of their sound on stage—it feels like a front-row seat to a smoky bar gig. This is blues played with effortless chemistry, but even more so with heart, sweat, and soul.
The eight songs here (or seven, since Porch Swing is instrumental) tell stories of being knocked down and getting back up again, circling around heartbreak, resilience, and redemption—the blues’ timeless terrain. It’s about surviving the hurt, and finding groove and grit in the healing. The combination of spirited lyrics, spellbinding fingerpicking, and rootsy rhythms is earthy, unvarnished, and utterly alive.
