Barry Dean

Born in England, Barry Dean is a product of the British music scene of the 60's.  He toured England and Europe with several bands and in 1970 became a founding member of "Oblivion Express" with world-renowned organist/keyboard player Brian Auger.  As well as playing bass, Barry wrote and co-wrote several pieces on the albums "Second Wind," "Straight Ahead" and "Closer To It," the latter being one of the few albums to appear on Billboard's R&B, Pop & Jazz charts.  Now a resident of Central Florida, Barry has also worked with "The Midnight Creepers" and now is happy to be a part of The Kingsnake Allstars.

"I really dig everybody in this band:  Mike, Ronnie and Tim," says Barry.  "There's a great band feeling in The Kingsnake Allstars."
