Country CANADA - Ontario

Description

Banjo folk country pop at its best. Clawhammer 5-string banjo grounds the sound of a band made up of some of Canada's finest musicians. Fiddle, drums, bass and accordian meld with smoky horns. Not to mention the fine songwriting with quirky smart lyrics.

Notes

Danny Bakan
Singer songwriter
Clawhammer banjo player extraordinaire    

Danny Bakan (pronounce it Back - in) is a master at combining the richness of tradition with the innovation of individuality. With solid roots in traditional North American repertoire, a passionate love of music and charismatic natural presence, Bakan delivers songs that speak to a love of life in all its grand stupidity - songs that are funny, smart and touching.

On top of being a fine songster and wordsmith, Bakan breathes new life into the art of playing clawhammer style banjo. He seamlessly marries traditional "frailing" techniques with rock/pop aesthetics to pay homage to and transcend genre.

"Look at Danny Bakan's songs and you'll get a clue just how wide ranging he is. There's one about a rat named Patsy Cline and another about washing his laundry on Saturday night. Somehow its not surprizing to learn that he is a devotee of the clawhammer banjo and wrote his masters thesis on holistic and aesthetic paradigms in education..." Greg Burliuk, Kingston Whig Standard

Danny Bakan's lyrical sense is quirky and clever. The music has been described as having a "post-modern" aesthetic, crossing boundaries between the contemporary and the traditional with elequence and grace.

Smart, funny and rocking!
