No longer easily dubbed an Americana or roots-rock band, the group’s sound encompasses ska, calypso, and even Southern rock, often within the same song.
Dangermuffin are storytellers. Casting images that are timeless yet novel, the band blends mindful lyrics with contemplative sounds, creating songs aimed at reinvigorating the soul. Having played festival stages and concert halls across the US and beyond, this seasoned outfit continues to share its music through live shows as well as online, where their streaming numbers have recently garnered exponential growth. The band’s far-reaching catalog is ripe with engaging, singable tracks that ask to be played on repeat.
Dangermuffin’s 2024 self-titled release reaches sunward, elevating the band’s role as a well rooted, unparalleled presence that crosses the borders of Americana, Folk, Jam, and Rock. Recorded in the vast halls of Echo Mountain, a church turned into a legendary recording studio in the heart of Asheville, NC,
this collection of songs showcases the band’s continued growth and commitment to their craft. Dan Lotti’s powerful vocals soar through the hallowed rafters of the old church as he sings on themes of light, healing, and growth, while floating on the beachy and breezy sounds we have come to recognize as uniquely Dangermuffin. The recent addition of Andrew Hendryx on mandolin adds a fresh hue to the band’s palette. Hendryx’s colorful style coupled with Mike Sivilli’s lyrical guitar lines, creates a newfound dialogue that propels the band into unexplored territory. At the cornerstone we find the distinct and
diverse drumming of Steven Sandifer, providing a comfortable yet firm bedrock for the quartet’s storytelling. This 2024 self-titled release marks a season of synergy and rediscovery for Dangermuffin.
On Icarus, the first single released from the new album, we find ourselves on a winged journey, flying fearlessly towards love and light. “A million stars, a million names, but always one thing remains the same. We are living in the same way, and we’ll die someday.” New Sol takes us on a search for discovery; looking to the sun we find ourselves anew. “I am. I am a new soul. I don’t wanna give up, I don’t wanna grow old.” Iris invites listeners to come and “walk a mile with me,” observing that nature’s
beauty is everywhere. “Iris, I see your love is all around.” I Will Never Forget is a voyage into our dreams as we think of those who have passed and how we remember them. “I cannot remember, still I will never forget. I cannot remember, still I will never forget you, forget you.”
