Dan Acfield is a songwriter, vocalist and guitarist from Brisbane, Australia.
An impulsive traveller and compulsive singer, Dan accepted his troubadour destiny at an early age. Even before he was old enough to speak, Dan had managed to amuse his parents with irrepressible car karaoke, and in a TV-free home environment, he took up songwriting at the early age of 9.
Following in the footsteps of m...usical ancestors (ranging from a New York hymn-writing orchestral musician, to a grandfather who played bass for everyone from Cat Stevens to Kamahl), Dan attended music school. Armed with a healthy combination of both respect and scepticism, Dan transitioned from his studies into the Brisbane music scene confidently, emerging as an enthusiastic champion of tidy pop-rock anthems.
Dan's knack for teaming catchy guitar hooks with interesting but unpretentious lyrics has already earned him the attention of local music aficionados, as well as a Highly Commended (Rock Category) in the 2010 QSong Awards.
Dan's career since graduation has involved the penning of two EPs (released under the moniker Dear April, his old band), as well as performances at all the usual indie-friendly venues throughout Brisbane and regional Queensland.
Artists Dan has performed with include: Hungry Kids of Hungary, Dan Parsons, Steve Grady, Diana Anaid, The Bloodpoets...
