Dan Webb's Music Journey
Dan Webb became known for his exciting live shows early in his career. He often made up parts of his music on the spot. A cool trick he did was playing his keyboard behind his back. This was a bit like how the famous guitarist Jimi Hendrix played his guitar.
Dan has worked with many other artists. These include Greg Saunier, Kylie Auldist, and actress Ashleigh Cummings. He also collaborated with horn players from bands like The Cat Empire.
Early Tours and New Music
In 2011, Dan Webb played five shows in the United Kingdom. He also performed twice at the St Kilda Festival in Australia. In 2012, he toured New Zealand. He also played at the Newtown Festival in Wellington.
In 2013, Dan shared twelve new songs for free online. These were early versions of songs that later appeared on his 2014 album, Sandstorm. One of these songs, "Departure," featured Kylie Auldist singing with him. This song was first played on BBC Radio 6 Music. After a big Australian tour in early 2013, Dan took a break from live performances.
