Description
Dan Hayes was born and raised in Marin County, California during the 50s and 60s. He became a professional Musician in the mid 60s and soon formed the Dan Hayes Group, and the Dan Hayes Blues Band, which opened for such acts as Charlie Mussellwhite, the Ford Brothers, and Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee.
The mid 70s found Dan moving to Nashville to become a songwriter. Here he was exposed to a wide array of country music, which inspired him greatly. Upon moving back to Marin later in the year, he began playing country music, eventually leading up to the forming of Bravo in 1982, a country band that opened for such acts as Jerry Lee Lewis, Ricky Skaggs, Johnny Lee, and Dottie West.
In the recent years Dan has returned to his blues roots, but at the same time not forgotten his country influences. His style is best described as Blues/Country, and sounds like a hybrid of Lightnin Hopkins and Merle Haggard. Outside of seeking song placements in Nashville and in the media, he can be heard on his most recent album California, and is expected to release another album later in 2006.
