A little History

Dan has been playing guitar since the age of 5.  At 7, he was on stage.  By 12 years old, he was on TV, and Dan has been playing across the country all his life.  He even played for the Chief of Staff of the USAF in 1977.  After leaving the military, Dan earned his bachelor and master's degrees, and has given music lessons, recorded and helped many other musicians, young and old, to achieve their goals.  Dan has been highlighted in numerous press releases, tv guides, and has been a favorite with critics.  He comes from a musical family, and his children and grandchildren are following his example.  Together, with his children, he often performs for the Friendly Son's of Saint Patrick, The Kennedy-Donovan Center, and many other organizations.  Dan performs as a soloist in restaurants, pubs and bars from two to three evenings per week.  He has 5 original CD's to his credit, a holiday CD, and many more to come.

Dan is an engaging entertainer, great guitarist and musician, and wonderful at telling (stale) jokes.  Come out for a night of entertainment, you deserve it!
