Dan is
a singer-songwriter born and raised in Plymouth, and now
based in Maidenhead, operating mainly in the
Berkshire/Buckinghamshire region. After (rather inexplicably)
choosing to study Drama at school, he picked up a guitar in his
late teens and began the laborious process of learning to make
pleasant noises with it. His surprising vocal range and power are
backed up with punchy and energetic acoustic guitar work, and he's
recently added ukulele-driven tracks to his set. He's also been
working a lot with his loopstation, a versatile but tricky gadget
allowing him to create multi-layered tracks on the fly, giving him
the kind of big sound you'd normally only get with a full band of
musically-inclined miscreants.
With
plenty of gigging experience under his belt, Dan has made a name
for himself on the Plymouth pub and club circuit, entertaining
crowds with a highly varied set of rock, pop and indie covers. He's
currently working on original material, with a view to releasing
his first solo EP: the initial step in his cunning plan for world
domination.
As well as
playing public venues, Dan is also available for private parties
and weddings: he has all his own gear, and if you ask really nicely
he'll even wear a suit.
In his
spare time, Dan is an all-purpose nerd with a fondness for baked
goods. Especially snickerdoodles. He has a great recipe that he'll
totally share if you're interested.
He also
thinks you look pretty fantastic today. Did you do something with
your hair?
Uh, maybe check again when there's not a global pandemic happening.
