Seeking a warm place to belong he found it back in Austin, the city in which he was born in June of 1979. And with familial roots going back seven generations and a slow, steady disposition, Austin naturally fit like a hat.
Always a creator, Daniel has dipped his toes into a variety of art forms; film, drawing, photography, journalism, poetry/philosophy, while his love for music of many styles remained constant. His start in writing songs came like a calling with his political and societal dissolution. During the seeming tranquility of 90's prosperous America, a peaceful world was like an inevitability, just an assumption or wishful thought, but after 9/11 it became clear that this America was, yet again, not going to choose peace over destruction and someone had to do or say something. Someone had to be there to counter the dark, knee-jerk, thoughtless impulses of the ignorant, angry and scared. Someone needed to come out and preach understanding, forgiveness, truth, and the hope of a better world in such a spiritual wasteland as this modern society. And this remains the root of why Daniel makes music. less
