This songwriter grew up in the mountains of South Carolina and the foothills of Alabama. Dan’s powerful lyrics and guitar combine to make something truly magical happen with each song he delivers.
Currently, Farmer appears regularly with the popular band Crooked Road, and has performed among Nashville songwriting circles at the famed Bluebird Café and Douglas Corner Cafe.
Farmer continues doing acoustic shows with friends and co-writers at venues and events around Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky and North Carolina.
Dan also performs with long time friend and co-writer Janet Hall O’Neil. They have played shows for Birmingham’s Red Mountain Theatre Company’s Concert Series, as well as, Birmingham’s 2008 City Stages Festival. Marc Navez and Kent Peterson, two of Alabama's finest musicians, often join Dan and Janet for many of their performances.
Crooked Road has released two CDs with title cuts penned by Dan; "Crooked Road" and "Lake Forgetful". For years Farmer, and Crooked Road, have entertained a large following in venues around Alabama. The band has also been featured at music festivals such as Birmingham's City Stages, Mobile's Bayfest, Riverfest in Gadsden, Big Spring Jam in Huntsville, the Briarfield Music Festival, and Helena’s Buck Creek Festival.
Dan’s solo CD is available at live shows or by contacting him at: danfarmersongs@bellsouth.net.
