There are a lot of musical influences and sources that Daniel Donato has drawn on during his career and that inform his latest album, Horizon, his second all-original album. But within those influences, Donato has carved out a unique and individualized spot for himself, one that speaks to the deep American music heritage that inspires him.
- Cosmic Country, Donato’s band and style of music, bridges Nashville twang and the open road sound of Great West, Kentucky folk music and psychedelic notes of mid-60s northern California.
- Donato grew up in Nashville and started busking in the city at just 14 years old.
- Donato’s band includes Nathan “Sugarlegg” Aronowitz (keyboards/guitars/vocals), Will “Mustang” McGee (bass/vocals) and Will “Bronco” Clark (drums, percussion/vocals).
