Jareb Cobb of DRUM! Magazine sums it best: "As a highly acclaimed percussionist, performer, producer, clinician, and inventor, Daniel de los Reyes is a rare example of someone who possesses the right combination of intelligence, experience, connections, and guts that separates himself from the masses. His pedigreed upbringing allows him to dream big, his years of paying dues on the road allow him to filter these ideas with a business-minded sieve, and his passion for life and music -- they are one in the same for him -- allows him to pursue worthy ideas with the level of energy and enthusiasm that they demand. He's a visionary with the drive to execute. But above all, he is and always has been one single thing: a drummer.”
Daniel’s high-energy drum and percussion performances have captivated audiences all over the world with their pulsating beat and high-powered rhythms. Add an extensive and diverse musical background into the formula and it is clear to see why Daniel de los Reyes is one of most sought after percussionists on the music scene today playing everything from rock to funk to jazz to R&B to Latin and world rhythms.
Over the years, Daniel has performed on tour, record, TV, movie and video with a virtual who’s who of music giants including The Killers, Earth, Wind & Fire, Sting, Don Henley, Billy Joel, Sheryl Crow, James Taylor, Jimmy Buffet, Brian Wilson, Stevie Nicks, Jennifer Lopez, Ricky Martin, Yanni, Shakira, Lionel Richie, Steve Winwood, and many others.
Daniel was hired by visionary producer Nicole Durr (ND) to be the Rhythm Creator and Drum/Percussion Leader for her highly anticipated "Fuego Raw Talent Live" show for its 2008 run at the Sahara in Las Vegas. When ND needed a high energy and exciting music group for her "Q Magazine" party event, she asked Daniel to put together one of his customized DRUMJUNGLE ensembles for the entertainment. Needless to say, the audience was blown away by the visually exciting and musically powerful DRUMJUNGLE show!

He received his early drum instruction from his father, Walfredo de los Reyes Sr., one of Cuba’s most prominent and influential drummers. His grandfather, Walfredo de los Reyes II, was one of the founding members of the successful Cuban orchestra Casino de la Playa.
Daniel continues to broaden his musical talents to include recording and producing new projects. Stepping into the spotlight as bandleader and producer, Daniel celebrates his Cuban roots while playing the driving rhythms, upbeat tempos, and danceable mambos, rumbas, and cha-cha-chas of his heritage.
