Bio / Background
"Writes Of Passage 101"
Growing up in the Midwest under the heavy hand of Calvinism might be considered an impediment in today's complex world. But like anything that's strong enough to kill you and doesn't, it's likely to become a valuable resource.
Dan Connor tells simple stories simply. "Profoundly simple," as one reviewer has said. While the issues addressed are pretty much the usual suspects, "Connor's takes are offbeat and refreshing." People are more alike than they are different, and the authority and musicality of these songs makes them "instantly inviting." But, hey, we are talking folk music here. Hip Hop fans will probably need to look elsewhere.
The music is guitar driven - mostly acoustic, some electric, no synthesizers. The amount of production is chosen to suit the song. All the musicians are top notch, and songs 2, 5, and 14 feature Connor's trio, Little Big Men. There is no attempt to write the same song twice.
