TERRY DAUN
A DIY artist, business owner, and cat lover living in the Valley of The Sun.
A professional drummer for 38 years. I now use a Korg Triton Le to create my sounds.Band/artist history
An unsigned artist looking for like minded listeners. (Hahaha, aren't we all...) TERRY DAUN
Born on October 29, 1956 in Wichita, Kansas. Terry has been around music since day one. His mother Helen played the guitar and organ. She also wrote and sang her own songs in nightclubs in the Phoenix area during the 1960’s. As early as 10 years old, Terry started going out with his mother while she performed with the likes of Waylon Jennings and Marty Robbins.
Terry started with guitar lessons at 8, but gave it up after a year and a half. At age 11, the hottest sound around was “Wipe Out” by The Safaris. “A lot of kids got turned on to drums at that time, and I was one of them”, he states. His main influences were; Mitch Mitchell (Hendrix Experience), John Bonham (Led Zeppelin), and as Terry would put it, the “greatest” rock drummer ever, Ginger Baker (Cream).
Some of the bands Terry has played with over the years are: Moments Notice, The Penetrators, KATO (a Cream cover band), Attitude Cat, Is Not Is Too, Manic-N (www.Jynkz.com) and from 2001 to 2003 White Noize. In 1991, Terry started TMD Entertainment, a Karaoke / DJ company. To date, Terry has performed over 3000 shows in the Phoenix metro area, all without missing a single show.
In December 2000, Terry joined forces with three old friends to form “White Noize”, an original hard rock band in Tempe, Arizona. Terry began as Lead Vocalist, and soon added percussion and keyboards. “It is very possible that I wouldn’t be where I am today if not for the experiences I had in White Noize and I thank John McKibben for that”. In time Terry wrote the lyrics to 8 of the bands 21 songs that can be heard at www.whitenoize.net
White Noize broke up in December 2003. By the end of August 2004, Terry had written and recorded 17 songs on his own in his, “My Furry Friends Studios”. This includes all of the instrumentation, as well as the backing vocals. “It’s funny you know I did that whole album on a 10 year old Radio Shack keyboard". Terry is now using a Korg Triton Le. It can be heard on the “Game On “ and "Taking Flight" albums, as well as all future releases. "The Korg Triton is awesome". "In closing, I would like to thank the great Todd Rundgren for the inspiration his music has provided me since 1972". Check out: www.trconnection.com
Terry's new realease titled "Dream Inducer" will be available in July.

My mission, goal, desire, aspirations, whatever you want to call it, is to continue writing and having a blast being an artist. Having spent nearly 40 years chasing the music dream, I am now at a point in which I intend on letting nature take it's course. Work hard and relax. I am really interested in finding some players out there who would like to do some live shows. I'm looking for fusion rock players. If there are any musicians in the South East Valley (Chandler, Mesa, Tempe, etc.) interested, please call me at 480.703.1137 I am located near Chandler Blvd. and I-10. terrydaun@msn.com
Thanks again for your time and interest in what I've got to say.
