Indie, Britpop and US alternative scene. I play anything from Beatles and Elvis to Bastille and George Ezra.
Yeah I tend to say “Indie, Britpop and US alternative”
My bio is:

Danny Brab is a Manchester-born singer and acoustic guitarist based in Trentham, Stoke-on-Trent.
Danny honed his craft as a teenage busker performing in Bury Market subway and on Manchester’s Market Street. He then jumped on a ship to Belgium where he spent the next nine months entertaining the crowds daily outside Antwerp’s historic cathedral.
In a music career spanning 25 years, he has shared the bill with the likes of Liam Fray (Courteeners), The Slow Readers Club, The Wombats and The Bluetones. He once played on a major tour date supporting John Peel’s favourite band, The Fall.
Danny has also performed twice at Liverpool’s legendary Cavern Club, on one occasion supporting Tony Wright from Terrorvision.
While an undergraduate at Manchester University he won a MBF National Songwriting Award in 2005 for ‘Welcome to Nowhere’ and ‘She’s Taken Everything’.
As a co-founder of post punk trio Optional Wallace, Danny wrote 'Generation' which was chosen as BBC Radio 6 Music’s Single of the Week, with the show’s host Steve Lamacq telling his audience: “It’s brilliant! Listen to it.”
Following a long break to pursue his day job, Danny is now back on the music scene and picking up more rave reviews for his performances as a covers artist.
