Bass Guitar and Vocals<\/h3>\n

Dan has managed to achieve a lot in a very short period of time. His musical palette is made of his love of diverse styles, from the obvious influences of great bass play-ers like Wooten, King, Pastorius and Jamerson. With his considerable technical prowess he fuses tremendous pop sensibility into his playing, has a keen ear for melody and can spend hours enthusing about artists normally considered poles apart from Prog Rock, like Earth Wind & Fire or early Michael Jackson.<\/p>\n

The funky edge he brought to The Tangent is his hallmark, and the older guys around The Tangent were quick to realise that this style is actually a very suitable way in which to approach Progressive Rock, in that Chris Squire\u2019s legendary work for Yes is, intentionally or not, \u201cwell funky\u201d as Dan puts it.<\/p>\n

Dan met Luke Machin (The Tangent , Maschine) at BIMM in Brighton where Dan was studying under Franc O\u2019Shea and the two worked together on many projects. By the time the bass position became available in The Tangent, there was no-one else under consideration. Dan was The Man!<\/p>\n

\u201cI try to capture the melodic quality of players like Jaco and McCartney and combine it with the groove of bassists like Wooten and Jamerson\u201d he says, \u201cIf you find the balance between groove and melody your bass lines will not only sit well, but complement and add to the harmony of any given composition\u201d<\/p>\n

He is a very welcome addition to United Progressive Fraternity<\/p>\n
