Acoustic Folk Musician Dan Ennis
Dan has been playing music for many years, and has been performing for just as long. Over the years, Dan has had the opportunity to perform at a variety of venues, and with a variety of performers. Throughout his musical career he has had the opportunity to work with amazing musicians such as Ralph Covert, the songwriter of the highly acclaimed children’s album Ralph’s World. This experience and exposure has influenced and shaped Dan’s musical style, and is still apparent in the work he does today. In 2003 Dan put out his debut album titled, “The Passing of Time.” This album proved to be the culmination of everything Dan musically believed in. The songs were deep, innovative, and profound. Audiences welcomed the album, and their reactions helped ignite Dan’s passion for songwriting. The success of “The Passing of Time,” encouraged Dan to dig even deeper, and work even harder at polishing his work. His newer songs, such as “Enjoy the Ride,” and “Life of Mine” are evidence of the great strides he has taken in the short time since his first album. Dan is currently working on a follow up album, which will include all of his new material. To conclude, the music of Dan Ennis could be generally categorized as acoustic folk, but remnants of classic country, acoustic pop, and even rock and roll are all present in his work. Dan is a very accomplished and a very unique singer-songwriter whose lyrics are profound and refreshing. His music not only entertains, but also often carries a message derived from political or sociological influences. Dan captivates an audience with his warm personality, his high energy, and his well-crafted songs.

Lyrics
Roll Away By Dan Ennis www.musictx.com/danennis We met outside of Washington When the grass was high and the wind was warm We played and we sang and we danced all day And listened to the trains roll away, roll away She was fourteen and I was ten Space and time were both transcend With a kiss on the cheek and a grab of the hand We left baby footprints in the sand, in the sand It didn’t take much to make her smile that day I’ll always remember her that way But like a fire that lost its spark It got cold as it grew dark And in the naked night she went away Now every night I write the song Of the golden beach and the ruby sun Of a love that’s gained and a love that’s lost As the sun sinks down off the cost, off the cost But like a fire that lost its spark It got cold as it grew dark And in the naked night she went away We met outside of Washington When the grass was high and the wind was warm We played and we sang and we danced all day And listened to the trains roll away, roll away www.musictx.com/danennis
