Hey Dan - thanks for the add man. I first heard you on an Masters of the Acoustic Guitar compilation Disc...'Sad Little Girl' is one of my favorite instrumentals. So tasteful and rich. I was also able to catch you at a little venue in Sioux Falls SD a few years back too. Best of luck this year, I always enjoy your music!
Hey Dan, hope you're well! Love the New Roots Duo stuff! I took a few lessons from you years ago. My right hand technique thanks you! Take care, David Harland.
Hello Dan I saw the "New Roots Duo" at the Greenman Music Hall a month or so ago. I thought it was one of the best live shows I've seen there. Very creative soothing music. Keep up the good work guys.
Great to hear from you!! Everything sounds incredibly beautiful, as expected. I love the new duo stuff with Ben. You make me want to play lap. I'm on such a Jerry Douglas kick, I'm thinking of trying to play Bach on dobro...
Hey Dan! I heard a rumor that your slide playing is out of this world. I'd sure love to hear that sometime soon... maybe a gig in northfield? Happy New Year! Steve
