Dan Henig is one of those artists who’s songs seem to stick in your mind for days after you hear them. He has a unique talent for mixing story with song. His words make you feel as if he’s telling your tale with a voice that will sooth even the most fractured of hearts. His music fluently expresses the trials and angst of youth. Drawing from influences such as John Mayer, Brandi Carlile, Mat Kearney, Matt Nathanson and Nick Drake, the sound is both worldly and modern yet has tinges of classic folk that transcends generations.

At the age of four Dan’s family moved to England, the turmoil of which would prove to be a lasting asset on his view of modern life. Always an avid athlete, he took part in a range of contact sports. During a Rugby game in 2009, he broke his neck and was rushed to the hospital. This experience triggered his movement into a life of music.
At age seventeen, this aspiration was put into motion by renowned producer Tim Patalan, who is known for work with artists such as Sponge, Brenda Kahn, Jeff Buckley and Taproot. While completing his high school career in Ann Arbor Michigan, he played extensively throughout the metro area. After finishing High school, he moved to Chicago to pursue a full time career and receive an education of music at Columbia College. He is now playing throughout the Midwest, and is currently working on his debut EP.
