Brett Dennen's Hope For The Hopeless Tour


01/14/2009
.
(PR) Singer/songwriter Brett Dennen will kick off his 54-city Hope For The Hopeless Tour this week with national TV appearances planned on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno (1/14) and Late Night with Conan O'Brien (2/9) and a Top Five radio hit with "Make You Crazy."

His video for the song, featuring a tongue-in-cheek performance by Mandy Moore, will be added to VH1 rotation (1/19). Rounding out Brett's good news is a newly formed touring partnership with the Life is good apparel brand to raise awareness for the Life is good Kids Foundation.

At each show, a portion of merchandise sold will benefit the Life is good Kids Foundation, which has donated more than $3 million to date to charities helping at-risk children across the country.

"Brett Dennen has a vibe we love," says Life is good Chief Executive Optimist Bert Jacobs. "We're grateful that he is joining hands with us to make a difference for kids."

The tour will hit venues across the country, with two nights in San Francisco at The Fillmore and two nights in Los Angeles at the House of Blues. Dennen will be joined by supporting artists Erin McCarley, The Little Ones, Angel Taylor and Angus & Julia Stone throughout the tour.
