A website for Brian Dickens, one of the baldest singer/songwriters in Franklin County, Massachusetts.
Brian Dickens is a singer, songwriter and guitarist from Turners Falls, MA. He has been performing his own songs on stages around New England and beyond since 2004. In 2012, he released his first full length solo acoustic album, followed a number of EPs. In 2016, he released "...And The Plot Dickens", his first full-band produced album. In 2018, he released "Posterity Measures", another full-band album, a 30 minute collection of mostly punk rock oriented songs. As of 2025, he continues to write more music, anticipating producing another album in the future.
Brian Dickens writes songs about a lot of subjects but they are nearly all autobiographical and nonfictional. While singing lyrics spanning the serious and the silly, he plays corresponding acoustic guitar in a groovy, rhythmic style, drawing inspiration from folk, rock, blues and punk music.

Music
(I haven't done albums in a while but they are out there!)
2018 11 08: "POSTERITY MEASURES". Click for the bandcamp link. I recorded this throughout 2017 and 2018 at Loud Sun Studio in Jaffrey, NH. Produced by Ben Rogers with aid from Mia Govoni, drums by Ben Rogers, electric guitars and bass by Ian Galipeau. I am really proud of this record and it is a short, wordy punchy image of where I was at the time. I'm writing a lot different music now. Album cover by Snide Molly.
2016 06 18: "AND THE PLOT DICKENS". Click for the bandcamp link. Recorded in early 2016 at Ian Galipeau's home studio in Keene, NH. Ian Galipeau on drums, bass, electric guitar and banjo. My first full band album, I love this album a lot and I am thankful to everyone involved. Album artwork by Madison Pierce.
