Comment about Dan Engelland. Tuesday, November 18, 2008 The intensity that Dan puts into his music through his guitar and his smooth bluesy voice is the reason why I asked him to play at the first 'annual' Rarearth Jazz and Blues Fest. He's got just enough of an 'edge' to wow his audience with that 'bad boy' presence and gains their respect on the first note played. Dan is a musician at its 'finest' and I was very proud to show him off at our festival in 2008. Kath, Organizer - Rarearth Jazz and Blues Fest, Vernon, B.C. www.rarearthjazzandbluesfest.com
New CD is comin' along just fine. Wednesday, August 20, 2008 Dan's 2nd cd is being worked on and making sure that it will be a strong production. There's 10 tracks 9 of the songs are original, the only cover is a rendition of a Taj Mahal song. The cd has already taken over 2 1/2 years in the making so far. It should only be a couple more months to complete the cd. The cd is being recorded at Image Audio Productions in Vernon B.C.
