Dennis Greenidge (born 15 July 1950) is a singer and cartoonist from London, England.
Dennis previously had several media-related jobs, namely with National Screen Services and Film Garage, and had worked as a cinema usher. Since the late 1990s, he has gained attention for his art and sound work; initially Dennis promoted himself by offering his artwork for sale to several independent shops in Notting Hill, London, then by bidding his services as a character designer and animator to various UK-based video game developers.
His work was soon chronicled in the short film Greenidge Meantime, premiered at the 8th New York Underground Film Festival in 2001. Subsequent to this, posts made by fans to several web forums and social networking sites have served to provide Dennis with the unexpected attention he now enjoys.
On 24 November 2007, the compilation album Giant Man, Giant Plan (released under the name of Cosmic Dennis Greenidge) was released by the Mordant Music record label.
