   About Danny G
Hi, I'm Danny G.

I feel truly blessed to make my living playing music. I've been playing guitar for 20 years and bass for 5. I am currently on tour with King's X as guitar tech for Ty Tabor. I also play bass full time with The Mother Truckers and guitar for Shandon Sahm, son of Texas music legend Doug Sahm as well as my own project Ironclad. I also have an instrumental experimental 2-guitar jam project in the works called Red River Day Care. I've toured through most of America and have been active Austin's Red River music community since the fall 2000. In addition to The Mother Truckers (Funzalo) and Shandon Sahm (Killing Bird), I have recorded and/or toured with Eric Tessmer, Southern Gun Culture (Arclight/Monotremata), the Ryan Bales Band, Velvet Brick (Mesa) and the Mark McKinney Band.

I was voted the Number 8 Bass Player in Austin for the 2008-9 Austin Music Awards. In 2008 I did 6 months of touring with The Mother Truckers. We got heavy airplay on Little Steven's Underground Garage and were featured on his Coolest Songs in the World compilation. The Mother Truckers' Josh Zee got a feature interview in the Nov 08 issue of Guitar Player Magazine and we opened for Mike Ness, Kenny Wayne Sheppard and The Cowboy Junkies. I am a FENDER endorsed artist.

In my spare time I build Armour Roadcases and Pedalboards, photograph bands and perform bizarre scientific experiments on effects pedals and other gear.

My guitar influences are Jimmy Page, Tony Iommi, Ace Frehley and the mighty Joe Walsh. Bass influences are Cliff Burton, Geezer Butler and John Paul Jones.

For the gearheads:

Guitar rig: modded 1981 Marshall JCM800 2203, Marshall 1960A and B cabs with each 2 G-75's/2 V30's. Boss TU-2, modded Boss Blues Driver, EA Tremolo/Booster I built, modded Phase 90, modded Crybaby. Main guitars: 1979 MIJ Ibanez Iceman w/57 Classic + Seymour Duncan Custom 5, 1996 Ibanez PS-10II Paul Stanley Re-issue Iceman w/57 Classic + Rio Grande BBQ. All amp/pedal/guitar modifications done by yours truly.

Bass rig: Late 70's Ampeg SVT, 1993 Ampeg SVT-II, Fender TB-600 rackmount, or new run Acoustic B200H (not all at the same time tho, heh). Ampeg Isovent cab. Boss TU-2, modded Big Muff Pi I built, Phase 90, Bass Crybaby. Main bass: 2002 USA Fender Precision Bass w/Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounder. All pedal/guitar modifications done by yours truly.

I think we're both batting well over a 1000 for the shit-faced-in-Kansas-City statistic because we are always sure to put in the extra effort. Of course, if we're gonna start throwing in Springfield or (God-forbid) Branson...

What's up Danny? Quit "tech-ing" and come back to Texas and play way too damn loud with me! Hope the tour is going well. If you pass through Kansas City, MO maybe you'll find some pieces of our livers laying about...
