Dan San Band

Groove Rock. Totally unique, yet strangely familiar.

     

Some people refer to it as "groove rock". The Dan San Band likes to think that their style of music is totally unique yet strangely familiar. They specialize in blending modern rock with classic r&b, jazz, blues, and even reggae. It's sometimes rockin', sometimes bluesy, sometimes chill, but always entertaining. The self titled debut CD from the Dan San Band contains ten diverse songs with a sound influenced by classic Stevie Wonder, Steely Dan, The Doobie Brothers, The Police, Bruce Hornsby, Dave Mathews Band, Ben Folds, and Billy Joel. The band combines funky Fender Rhodes riffs, jazz/funk bass lines, rock drumming, and power-pop guitars with Dan Sanfilippo's smooth, melodic vocals for a totally unique mixture of sounds. The lyrics to these songs are catchy, fun, whimsical, and intelligent and Dan delivers them with passion, soul, and clarity. Pop this CD in your car on a nice day, turn it up and sing along to your heart's content. It never gets old.
