Eclectically inspired and consistently brilliant” (Froots)
Whether as a solo artist, key member of the acclaimed Urban Folk Quartet, or in-demand session musician for the likes of Darius Rucker and Ward Thomas, Dan Walsh wows audiences with a performance style equal parts blisteringly kinetic and accessibly conversational.
Dan is a full-spectrum musician – an ingenious instrumentalist, evocative songwriter and dynamic performer. From the largest festivals in Europe to the most intimate folk clubs in England, he’s become a beloved performer, respected teacher and inventive composer.
His ever-burgeoning reputation has seen him tour the world, from Canada and the USA to Australia, New Zealand and across Europe, everywhere winning new fans for this rare mix of virtuosic musicianship, moving and amusing songwriting, and winning charm.
Initially captured by the drive and melody of Irish banjo, he was soon struck by the flawless Americana of artists such as Alison Krauss, Union Station and Nickel Creek. Dan has since explored the full breadth of the folk idiom – from English jigs to inventive jazz and frenetic funk, modern singer-songwriter fare and even the Indian raga.
