Denny Dennis (1 November 1913 in Derby 2 November 1993 in Barrow-in-Furness).  was a British romantic vocalist during the 1930s to the 1950s, when British dance bands were at the peak of their popularity. He was a band singer, a solo recording star and a broadcaster.In 1933, he became a featured singer in the Roy Fox band, for five years until the Fox band disbanded. He worked with Ambrose's orchestra for six months until June 1939 when he decided to go solo,recording for Decca's Rex label. This soon clashed with the outbreak of the second World War and Dennis enlisted in the RAF in June 1940 and remained in uniform until 1945. After the war, he made a number of recordings with Stanley Black and his orchestra and these drew him to the attention of Tommy Dorsey. In March 1948 Dennis left the UK to become the featured vocalist with the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra. He had a successful time with Dorsey with their recording of "Down by the Station" reaching the Billboard charts in 1949 and peaking in the #11 position.
