Dan Sealey
Genre : Music - Folk/blues/world
Songwriter, bass guitarist, vocalist, engaging storyteller? the list goes on when it comes to describing the many talents of Dan Sealey.
Born in Birmingham, Dan started his career with the folk-rock band Ocean Colour Scene, toured the world, played headline slots at major festivals for over a decade, and co-founded Merrymouth with Simon Fowler. Merrymouth featured award-winning musicians, including John McCusker and Andy Cutting and guest appearances from Chas Hodges (Chas and Dave).
Dan also re-formed the legendary Music Hall double act, Cosmotheka, with his father, Dave, a leading voice in the 80s and 90s folk scene. Cosmotheka toured the world with Chas and Dave, had their own Radio Two programmes and made multiple TV appearances. Dan and Dave (one half of the original duo) decided to take the band back out on the road and had great fun headlining Folk Festivals in Bromyard, Whitby, Towersey, Sidmouth, Broadstairs and Upton, to name but a few.
Dan took his show on the road, featuring music from the bands he has played in, complemented by hilarious stories he amassed along the way while working on his first solo album.
"A particular highlight of this year?s festival was the excellent and amusing Dan Sealey" (Beardy Folk Festival).
"The highlight of the entire week!" (Broadstairs Folk Week).
"If you ever need a masterclass in songwriting, Dan Sealey is a good place to start. Oozing class on record and live, Dan wraps his reflections on the passing of time in beautiful, lilting musical constructions that work perfectly alongside his silky, easy on the ear vocals." (Glastonbury Emerging Talent Competition).
