In addition to recording as part of Wapituli (see

River City Winery in New Albany and Culver's of Corydon. Dennis Hill &
Lori Clark perform together as a duo at
venues such as Joe Huber's Farm & Restaurant and
the Moose Lodge on Fegenbush Lane in Louisville.

special guest. You can learn more about them

 Dennis Hill
as a solo performer might
be called a "Human Jukebox", if only for the huge number of songs
he's able to perform. His song list numbers nearly 500 Pop, Rock,
& Country hits from the mid 50’s thru the mid
90’s plus a few 2000’s. Dennis encourages requests, enabling
him to shape his performance to fit the audience. If he can't
perform a specific song requested, Dennis is usually able to do a
song by the same artist or a song that fits the same musical genre. |
 Dennis Hill & Lori Clark
can provide your party or event with the
perfect mix of music and fun! Their on-stage
chemistry is infectious as they perform a
variety of Pop, Rock, & Country music that
appeals to a wide age group. Their style is
perfect for parties of all kinds, mixing great
listening music with great dancing music. Lori
and Dennis are a dynamic and fun duo, sure to
please any type of audience. |

The Story Behind The
Name "Wapituli"
.....
We often get asked ... What
does Wapituli mean?
J.P. has his unique
explanations that he shares
with our audiences, however
there is a "real" origin for
the word. To
the best of our knowledge,
the word "Wapituli" was originally used to
describe a beverage recipe that Dennis sampled
occasionally during his
college years. The drink
might be compared to 'jungle
juice' or 'trash can punch.' A combination of many
ingredients that results in a tasty finished product.
When we were brainstorming for a name for a music group
several years ago, we decided on Wapituli because
of the eclectic combination of music the we performed,
bringing many styles together to form one cohesive
musical performance. |
