Since very young his inclination for music was obvious and by the time he turned 13 Danny was starting his first band. Over the past 30 years he has played for various bands developing his skills as a singer/songwriter, guitar and bass player in the California, Oregon, Central and South America.

Danny came in touch with the Latino world through family connections, childhood friendships and work which have given him a much better understanding of Latino cultures and lifestyles. Between 2008 and 2012 Danny lived in Nicaragua and since then calls the Peruvian Amazon his home. It is because of his long time history and appreciation of life ¨south of the border¨ that he decided to write country music with a Latino touch. ¨I have a passion to play a part in improving mutual understanding and appreciation between Latinos and non-Latinos through my unique musical and lyrical style that blends both cultural flavors highlighting the best of all of the Americas¨, mentions Danny. Over the past 10 years Danny has composed and produced several songs which cover a broad genre range including country, latin, romantic, rock, and world musical styles using a poetic blend of English and Spanish in order to allow Spanish speakers to connect deeper with the meaning of his songs and for non- Spanish Speakers to enjoy some Latino culture through Danny´s unique style.
