Celebrate Christmas with Wallen and Phelps! Ten More Miles combines the talents of Brian, Molly, and Dean to produce something special: a collection of folk, blues, and bluegrass influenced Christmas songs.

Compiled from two of Dean's appearances on the Red Barn Radio program, Smiles includes live versions of previously released studio recordings and two songs from the Appalachian Christmas program. (2017)

Brian Keith Wallen and Dean Phelps are established performers in their own right, but when they get together, they cook up a soulful mix of blues, bluegrass, old-time, and gospel music. Think Merle Travis meets John Mayer, introduced by Doc Watson. (2016)

Fourteen tracks of toe-tapping hymns and gospel tunes, built on a foundation of Travis-style guitar. The physical CD contains a bonus track not available as a download. (2012)

Songs about faith, love, and a dog named Jesus. This album highlights Dean’s acoustic singer-songwriter roots with covers of songs by Paul Simon, Jonathan Edwards, Kate Wolf and Bob Dylan. (2008)

This Old House was Dean’s first recording with Indianapolis and Nashville producer Steve Creech. The album explores a variety of Dean’s musical influences and tells stories about people, life, and faith.
