About
Daniel grew up playing in church and school jazz bands in Kansas City, then moved to Nashville in 2020 to study commercial guitar at Belmont University under Adam McPhail, Nick Palmer and Larry Godwin.
Today he tours with artists and works with singer-songwriters and recording artists live and in the studio — bringing a deep theory background, an ear for parts, and an easygoing presence on any bandstand.
