Dan Coffey
Solo electro artist, involved in various collaborations.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Having been involved in many bands as a guitarist from pop/rock to prog/metal over an 11-year period Dan wrote and recorded many songs, sent out many demos and explored his own musical influences to great extent. Around 2003 it finally emerged to Dan that the very tools he used to record, were in fact sophisticated instruments among themselves.
Since then Dan has become heavily involved in music/sound composed, performed and recorded using various electronic and/or home made gizmos ranging from quirky electro/pop to a lengthy, almost ‘sound-scape' like collage of themes.
These musical experiments have now culminated into the 2005 album ‘Follow up Treatment' with extensive button pushing and detailed beat programming for your musical enjoyment.
