Coupled with an exhilarating guitar talent that transcends mere acoustic playing to replicate a whole band, Champagne is just magical” (themusic.com.au)
The story goes that the young Australian singer, songwriter and one-of-a-kind guitar virtuoso first picked up his instrument of choice as a five-year-old following in the footsteps of a musical father. He began writing songs at 12, training classically throughout his teens and performing solo wherever he could, honing his craft and developing what would become the dynamite live show that he is renowned for today. At 18 he left school, turned professional and hit the road. The next five years saw him traversing North America, the United Kingdom, Europe, New Zealand and of course, his homeland Australia playing such festivals as Vancouver and Mariposa Folk (Canada), Belgium’s Labadoux Festival and Australia’s Woodford, Falls Festival, Port Fairy Folk Festival and the legendary Byron Bay Bluesfest.
Daniel has toured and shared the stages with Tommy Emmanuel, Albert Lee, Kaki King, Lucinda Williams, Judy Collins, INXS, John Butler, KT Tunstall and Ani DiFranco, Jake Shimabukuro, Rodrigo Y Gabriela. – all of this while writing, producing and independently releasing "Shimmer Through The Windscreen" (2023) “Trying to Hold The Setting Sun” (2020) “The Nightingale Collection (2019) “Satellite City EP” (2018) “Fault Lines” (2017) “Heartland Hurricanes” (2015) two Eps, Gypsy Moon Volumes 1 and 2, (2014) his first long player, ‘Pint of Mystery’ (2011), ‘My Own Design’ (2009) and ‘Wide Eyed and Open’ (2010), and the ‘Real Live’ offering in 2012.
