Deric Dyer was born in Ireland and lived in England until 1967, when his trumpet-player father moved his family to Bermuda – where Deric’s musical career began. In Spring of 1975, after meeting Cliff Goodwin and joining the American Standard Band, Deric moved to America. Just two years later, ASB would become Joe Cocker‘s band. Playing in Joe’s horn section with the legendary Bobby Keys, “Rolling Stones, Stevie Wonder” Deric quickly learned the art of Rock/R&amp;B sax. This proved to be valuable experience for what was still to come in his career. After a couple of years of playing with Joe, Deric left to play and record with many of the best of Boston’s music scene, a highlight recording with Rick Ocasek of The Cars on his first solo album Beatitude.
Deric’s next life-changing opportunity came in January 1987, when he had the good fortune to audition for Rock And Roll Hall of Fame -Tina Turner. He spent an amazing two years as part of her Break Every Rule World Tour, and when Tina was paired with Joe Cocker on Summer festival shows in Germany, Deric and Joe rekindled their friendship. Deric wasn’t home long from TT tour when manager Michael Lang (Woodstock Promoter) called to ask if he would like to re-join Joe Cocker and the rest of the band for the Unchain My Heart World Tour. Deric jumped at the chance to revisit that special time in his career.
Deric continued to tour with Joe throughout the 80’s, 90’s, and 2000’s, as well as playing with Roger Hodgson, Al Jarreau, Tony Hadley and Andrea Bocelli. Belgium’s Night of The Proms reunited him with his Tina band mate (and the best man at his wedding), John Miles. In 2012 and 2013, Deric was asked to take part in the John Lennon Double Fantasy Bermuda Tribute Concerts, where he worked with Maxi Priest, Biggie Irie, Roy Young, Uzimon and many amazing Bermudian artists to celebrate the music of John Lennon.
Two years after losing Joe, arguably the greatest voice in Rock &amp; Roll, Deric reached out to his old friends to ask if they could come together again to help keep Joe’s music alive. Their answer was a resounding “YES!” and “Mad Dogs Unchained” was born. MDU went on to play Worcester’s Bull Mansion (among other New England venues), release an hour-long documentary video with a live CD, and travel Europe for eighteen shows in 2018.
During the pandemic, Deric also collaborated with James Duncan and Tony Brannon to produce “Hope!” - a song for the time - with the goal of helping lift the spirits of people everywhere.
Deric Produced the Trilbee Kings album. Working with Executive Producer Rich Kneeland, Deric &amp; Rich, with some of the best musicians in the world, headed of to Los Angeles to record at the famous Sunset Sound Studios. Deric plays soaring solos that adds the final, rich sound to the T.K. Album.
On July 4th 2023 Deric performed in celebration of Tina Turner at New York City’s Macy’s/NBC fireworks display, seen live by millions all over the world. Later that year was a special guest speaker at the Tina Turner Museum - West Delta Heritage Center Brownsville TN. Deric also rereleased Renaissance Man with the additional track “Tennessee Waltz” Sept 2023.
This September brings the release of Deric’s sixth album Red String. A beautiful mix of classic songs from Dylan “Make You Feel My Love” Lennon “Imagine” to Jim Webb “Wichita Lineman” Another captivating musical journey!

GOETEMANN ARTIST RESIDENCY BRINGS MANCHESTER-BASED ARTIST AND WRITER TO GLOUCESTER

OPEN STUDIO: THURSDAY 2-4 PM 9/17 (OCEAN ALLIANCE)

Gloucester, MA -&nbsp;What can water remember? What stories are held within a harbor, a river, or&nbsp;an ocean and whose stories are we able to hear?


These questions are at the heart of the work of artist and writer Fiona Brehony, the current Goetemann Artist-in-Residence at Rocky Neck Art Colony. Based in Manchester, Britain, Brehony works across moving image, sound, and performance, collaborating with scientists, composers, historians, and communities to create poetic and inquisitive works that explore the relationships between people, places, and waterways.
During her residency in Gloucester, Brehony is turning her attention to Gloucester Harbor, exploring the harbor as both a natural ecosystem and a human-made infrastructure. Her work is informed by historian Richard White's concept of the "organic machine" - a landscape that is simultaneously natural and shaped by human activity. This idea offers a way of approaching the harbor not as a backdrop, but as a complex living system in which water, industry, infrastructure, human communities, and other species are continually shaping one another.
Brehony's approach of thinking with water considers water not simply as a subject or environment, but as a material that connects bodies, places, histories, and species. Drawing on Astrida Neimanis's concept of Bodies of Water, she is interested in the ways human bodies are already materially entangled with the waters around them. In Gloucester, this raises questions about how we might listen to a harbor as bodies already implicated in its waters - and how whale song, human voices, harbor infrastructure, and the movement of water might become part of a shared, though uneven, ecological and acoustic body.
Her residency includes a collaboration with Ocean Alliance, engaging with the organization's extensive archives of whale song to develop poetic work on the ocean's presence and the waters shared with whales. Brehony is exploring the ocean as a living archive - one that carries ecological history, community memory, and evidence of the ways human and non-human lives intersect.
"Water can hold histories that we don't know how to access," Brehony says. "I'm interested in what happens when we listen closely to a place, and in what might emerge when those acts of listening become collective."
The residency extends ideas developed through Brehony's ongoing Liquid History
project, workshops and soundwalks approaching rivers as living archives of social and ecological memory, previously focused on the River Irk in North Manchester. In Gloucester, that inquiry expands from river to harbor and ocean, where the scale of water - and the number of lives entangled within it - becomes harder to grasp.
The public is invited to a series of gatherings and events during her time in Gloucester.
Brehony is an AHRC-funded doctoral candidate researching the River Irk in North Manchester as a living site of cultural heritage and has spent this summer as artist in residence with the Norwegian Institute for Nature Research in Oslo, developing Water Symphony, following the city's fjord, rivers, and waterways as a medium for exploring urban justice.
Her work has been commissioned by the Whitworth Art Gallery, the University of Oxford, PRiSM at the Royal Northern College of Music, and Creswell Crags Museum, and supported by Arts Council England and the AHRC.
The Goetemann Artist Residency Program is a program of Rocky Neck Art Colony, bringing contemporary artists to Gloucester to engage with the community, explore the region's rich cultural and environmental landscape, and develop new work in response to place.
