Bio / Background
"There are basically four main qualities that a musical entertainer can and should strive to possess. These are singing ability, proficiency on their instrument, writing ability, and the charismatic capacity to entertain. Many people get by with being good at a couple of these. But when you are, for instance like the Beatles were, great at all four, there is no stopping you. That is what I come away thinking about Daniel Lee."-- A judge in the prestigious Eddie's Attic Shootout Competition for Performing Songwriters (which Daniel won, joining a roster of names like John Mayer and Dayna Kurtz)
"Difficult to categorize, Daniel Lee's brand of soulful pop goes down as one of the best indie performances you ever heard; his vocalizations and incredible guitar work will absolutely MESMERIZE you live!! An amazing guy with such an intimate knowledge of his guitar that it's almost suspect.

"Lee combines the laid-back yet unquestionably aware vocals of Ben Harper with a funk-guitar style reminiscent of John Mayer." - Editor's Pick, WashingtonPost.com
Daniel Lee's voice takes center stage with its warmth, character, and five-octave range. He pairs that memorable voice with powerful, percussive, sophisticated guitar work, but played in a way that people can cling to.
" DANIEL LEE - Missage Is a Mirror Hold Your Breath: Everything about Daniel's songwriting and production has intensified: the songs that rock out ROCK OUT; the songs that groove hard groove HARD; the songs that sweetly lull you to that serene place do it with eerie grace ... each song ... erupts with a majestic hook worthy of the classic songwriting heroes we all love." - Seth Horan, artist on BMI records.
Hailing from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Daniel Lee began the study of classical guitar at age 7, has been composing music since his teens, and taught high school senior English prior to dedicating himself full time to creating and performing music. Daniel's music and lyrics are fresh and new, but he is not shy to integrate the healthy influences of artists ranging from Stevie Wonder to Joni Mitchell to Sting as well as incorporating the New Orleans jazz, blues, and Creole musical traditions of his roots.
Daniel Lee has shared stages with Shawn Mullins, Better Than Ezra, David Garza, John Mayer, Ian Moore, Cowboy Mouth, Michelle Malone, and Matthew Kahler, among others. In June 2005 he opened for a Mountain Stage Show featuring Guy Clark and Loudon Wainwright III. He has performed in 20 states and at festivals in Louisiana, North Carolina, Tennessee, and the Washington, DC area.
