About...

Connecticut-based Dexter blurs genre lines by drawing on the many musical influences of its members. Their organic, acoustically-driven rock has a hint of eclectic jazz-infused experimentation and grit. Soaring melodies, soulful insight, and fearless risk-taking contribute to their wide appeal. Dexter enjoys the dynamic and spirited conversation that is music in the studio, in performance, with each other and with their audience.

Band Members...

While fortunate to collaborate with many fine musicians, Dexter's core group is as follows:

Whendi Cook  

Whendi’s music is personal and reflective yet distinctly universal, resonating with visceral imagery.  Her unconventional songwriting combined with an ability to transform her voice from angelic to aggressive creates a rare complexity and completeness in her artistry.

Both ethereal and earthy, the question remains… is she sylph or seraph?



 
 
Dan Broderick  

Dan is most at home expressing himself through guitar, (though it is not unheard of to find him clutching a bass, mandolin, pots and pans, etc.)

Dan has what may be termed an unhealthy obsession with an "end-to-end pursuit of music”.  Whether he is seeking out mentors, collaborating on an effects pedal design, repairing guitars, or designing and building tube amps, playing is never far from his mind.



 
 
Jona Ziac  

Jona, a gifted multi-instrumentalist and veteran of several bands, weaves a melodic counter-point on the low-end.  When ask to illuminate the defining characteristics of his sound he replied,

"Jona like bass... bass good."

 



 
 
James Allen  

Yes, the James Allen ladies and gents!
