Much of Daniels'poetry is derived from passages from his work as founder of the Reggae Theatre Ensemble.

The Talkin' Roots Crew's beginnings go back to Harmony Park Music Garden at Harvest Fest back in 2003. Originally a voice,drum and bass ensemble,it has evolved over time.It was conceived by David Daniels orginally to present spoken word adaptations from passages of plays he had presented as the founding member of the Reggae Theater Ensemble.Now on any given performance,in addition to Daniels' work,you might hear the Talkin Roots Crew perform "spoken word covers" of poets Richard Brautigan,Gary Snyder,Wendell Berry..even Robert Hunter! It is difficult to define the Talkin' Roots Crew..Call it an Acoustic Reggae/Spoken Word/Folk/Poetry/Jam Band.
