Dan Tindall: Bio

Dan Tindall

I live in Ireland (the north, to be precise). I was born here too. I have been playing and writing music in some form or another since I was in my teens, and played in various bands and musical combos.

My current music is in the style I love the best - acoustic music referencing blues, folk, country, and anything else that takes my fancy. I like songs with a good lyric, so I try to write songs with a good lyric. If I have any kind of agenda, it is that music is made by people, not machines and corporate whim.

I can play a few instruments - primarily the guitar, of course, but also the blues harp, the mandolin, resonator (and some slide guitar on a regular 6 or 12 string acoustic), as well the occasional foray into percussion. I love acoustic sounds - which is some major part of the reason why I do this music thing!

As well as making music, I'm very keen on the whole do-it-yourself thing where recording and promotion/distribution are concerned - in fact the whole business of being an independent musician. There are a lot of like minded folks out there, I pleased to say, and if you check out my links page, you'll find a few listed there.

Discography

2005 - YOU KNOW HOW IT GOES (CD/MP3)

17 songs - essentially a collection of the best up to that point. Some blues, some folk, and some straightforward acoustic songs. Some people love it. Some people don't. I find it hard to be objective either way...

2005 - BLACK BUTTERFLY EP (MP3 only)

Five songs recorded in a few sessions to give a collective feel to them.

EP(2006)

The start of 2006 saw 4 new songs released together as a sort of EP (although they stand as easily as individual songs).
