Dave Bennett
Dave Bennett, jazz clarinetist and singer, performed on Friday, June 6, 2025, at 6 p.m. at Dirty Dog Jazz Cafe in Grosse Pointe Farms. He merges Swing era classics with rockabilly energy, accompanying himself on piano and electric guitar.
Dave Bennett’s style is anything but typical. Drawing inspiration from Alice Cooper, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Chris Isaak, he blends the music of Benny Goodman and Roy Orbison, singing rockabilly hits while playing piano and electric guitar.
Starting his national touring career at age 14, Dave has appeared with the New York Pops at Carnegie Hall and with over 35 orchestras across the US and Canada, including in Detroit, Nashville, and Toronto. He regularly takes part in major jazz festivals.
In March 2022, he played to a sold-out crowd at New York City’s Birdland Theater with his band.
A recording artist on Mack Avenue Records, his second album, Blood Moon, reached No. 24 on the Billboard Jazz charts in 2018.
