Acoustic Sundays at the Flapper with Dan Gallagher + Support
Dan Gallagher:
Having spent the last 13 years as a drummer, Dan Gallagher has only recently emerged as a singer songwriter. Starting at various open mic nights at local venues and now playing regular gigs around Birmingham. Dan is gradually getting his acoustic sound heard and is already receiving positive feedback. Drawing on influences from Ryan Adams, Tom Baxter, Richard Ashcroft, Ray Lamontagne, Dave Mathews and Damien Rice, Dan has a songwriting style which most can relate to. His aim is to write "simple, honest and heartfelt songs", with a clear focus on lyrics that make sense and draw clear pictures for the listener to relate to. Moving forward Dan has recently started working with June Mori, a very talented pianist. With June adding her own score to Dans existing songs, the songs have developed new textures and a fuller more complete sound. Dan is now searching for a Cellist or Violinist to complete what he feels would be a good solid sound. Dan keeps his feet on the ground maintaining that he is just a bloke who is having a go and is simply enjoying the journey. He wants to keep very "open, honest and true" with a light hearted approach and so writes about his experiences as a small musician in a big world and wants to use myspace to give a true reflection of his thoughts and experiences rather than use it as merely a marketing tool which he feels seems a little distant.
