Dean Heckel covering "Tennessee Whiskey" by Chris Stapleton 

I only clicked on this because I was sure nobody could touch Stapleton's rendition. Boy was I in for a shock. What a voice!

Your voice is as smooth as a Tennessee whiskey Wish I was in a bar now drinking whiskey listening to this man sing Fucking COVID

I can't stop listening to this version of Tennessee Whiskey it's amazing Dean! 😉👌

Good Lord, only really unhappy people would thumb down this performance ..... Love to see this dude and Morgan James sing a song or two 👍

Dean, you SHOULD BE famous. Wow, you are so incredible. This rendition of Tennessee Whiskey is soulful and you put your all into it. I wish I knew your story. You are a perfect combination of vocal and guitar.

I could watch this over and over again and would never get tired of it.

Another fabulous rendition!!! I love them all!!!

This is fucking awesome. The guitar play,the singing, the soul. Absolutely fantastic!

I have listened to many versions of this song by many people and this version is by far the best of them. Bravo 👏

By far the best cover of this song dean you’ve got soul brother

This is the best cover for the song. It's fkng brilliant.

Goosebumps !!!! You have an awesome voice and would love to see you perform live

a voice as smooth as the tennessee whiskey, sand with soul and conviction.

Wow. Incredible. I don't know how I ended up here but I am glad I did!

I have to tell you, I stumbled across you by chance and you now have a true fan in your music. I have made a playlist of all your songs and it helps me unwind and relax here in my base in Iraq. Thank you for all you do and more importantly I wish you nothing but success!

Man! You got some soulful pipes! You’re voice gives me shivers. Very nicely done ✌️🥃

Country music still has soul!! Thank you my brother

From one musician to another, you've improved abundantly! Best version I've ever heard!

Of all the covers i've heard of this song...yours is the best. Love your voice!! Keep singing!! ♥ :)

beautiful, I have goosebumps

Dean, I love Chris Stapleton and his style. However, this is my favorite version of this song out of any I've heard, including his. Amazing job.

Great voice! Great version!

Nailed it man

Watched House of the rising sun first. Later this popped up. So simple, precise and easy listening and fantastic embellishments! Liked and subscribed.

Love the stingy brim (hat) dude. Absolutely making this your own. Great job!

Just found you today, been listening to the new and old. ...awesome! !!!!

WOW this guy is So awesome I would love to hear more he's as good as Teddy swims and Chris Stapleton WOW WOW

You have what they say in music is a real soul feel in your voice.. This is a beautiful cover.. 💯🔥

Jesus, the man can sing.

Chris Stapleton is the real deal! Very very hard act to imitate. I've listened to many many attempts, some were ok, while others were good , but most fell short of coming remotely close to the soul & feeling Chris effortlessly pours out in his voice... But here you have someone that I would listen to in a bar, on the subway or on the radio! And although he covers the same song, makes it his own. Excellent!

wow, wow!!!! YOU NAILED IT!!! LOVE, LOVE IT!! SUCH AN AMAZING TALENT!!! GOD BLESS YOUR BEAUTIFUL VOICE :) YOU ARE SMOOTH ALRIGHT WOW!!!!

What a voice, Wow, talent my man follow the dream.

How beautiful - touched my soul! Your voice is slicker than glass - LOVE this!

Damn I enjoyed the hell out of that. You are one talented man. Love to hear more.

Best dam version I've heard of that song in a long while son.

Wow that was just Amazing!! thanks for sharing Man...

WHAT VOICE, WHAT MUSIC, I LOVE AND LOVE.

Freaking killed it! Great performance. Thank you for that beauty.

This guy is totally awesome!!!! Don't stop making cover

Absolutely amazing cover Dean, well done brother, "Great Job"

Dean. Been on RU-vid from beginning enjoying the artistry of those who've yet to be discovered and I've always been amazed at the level of talent in the world. But I'd have to say that your unique voice and delivery is in the top 3 of all that have stopped me in my tracks and wanting more. Additionally, I've never subcribed to anyone else until tonight. I would agree with many others who've encouraged the Voice and not for any reason other than the opportunity for others to hear you. You have a true gift brother that should be shared. BTW, not sure what inspired the dramatic weight loss and if it wasn't due to some health issues, than good on you and keep posting for us to enjoy for free because I can't imagine that will last. Take care and be well.

This is great stuff! Vocals is spot on, that rasp in your voice is perfect!!! Great job

Oh man I felt that! Great rendition loved it.

The Best cover of this song . Wow you are amazing . You have gained another fan. Love your voice and control❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
