The Poems, Prayers and Promises of John Denver

​Multi award winning performer, Darren Coggan, returns to his country roots with “The Poems, Prayers & Promises of John Denver”, delivering the vocal authenticity of one of the most passionate performers of all time.

In a personal reflection, Darren respectfully honours the indelible voice behind songs that the whole world sang along with, such universal anthems as Take Me Home Country Roads, Rocky Mountain High, Annie's Song, Perhaps Love, Thank God I’m A Country Boy, Calypso, Leaving On A Jet Plane and many more.
Re-live the voice of a generation, in a celebration of one of the most inspiring and prolific singer songwriters of our time, remarkably re-created live, by Darren Coggan.

“Coggan has a fresh, powerful, expressive voice, and he just oozed style.” THE AUSTRALIAN

“Coggan’s musical story-telling is outstanding, as is his singing and playing." SUNDAY HERALD SUN

“What is so impressive about Coggan is that he is able to channel authenticity and excellence at the same time. His mellifluous vocals are intoxicating. His voice has maturity, depth and resonance. He is assured in his delivery and wins us over from the first note.” Alex First (Australian Arts & Entertainment theblurb.com.au)
