Martin Denny (April 10, 1911–March 2, 2005) was an American piano-player and composer best known as the “father of exotica.”[1] In a long career that saw him performing well into his 80s, he toured the world popularizing his brand of lounge music which included exotic percussion, imaginative rearrangements of popular songs, and original songs that celebrated Tiki culture.

His combo spawned two successful offshoots: Julius Wechter (of Baja Marimba Band fame) and exotica vibist Arthur Lyman.

Biography

Denny was born in New York, and raised in Los Angeles, California. He studied classical piano[2] and at a young age toured South America for four-and-a-half years in the 1930s with the Don Dean Orchestra.[3] This tour began Denny’s fascination with Latin rhythms. Denny collected a large number of ethnic instruments from all over the world, which he used to spice up his stage performances.[4]

After serving in the United States Army Air Forces in World War II, Denny returned to Los Angeles in 1945 where he studied piano and composition under Dr. Wesley La Violette[5] and orchestration under Arthur Lange at the Los Angeles Conservatory of Music. He also studied at the University of Southern California.[4]
