About the Artist
Daniel began studying drums and percussion at the age of eleven at Rowville Secondary College under the guidance of Brian Czempinksi. During his time at Rowville Secondary College, Daniel gained a great deal of ensemble playing experience and at the age of only seventeen, Daniel was the winner of the “Australia’s Best and Upcoming Drummer Competition” in the open age category. After completing high school, Daniel entered into a bachelor degree of music performance at the Victorian College of The Arts and during his first year, he was awarded the Gwen Nisbett Scholarship Award. Before graduating from the VCA in 2004, Daniel was already playing and touring with a variety of ensembles around Australia and the Pacific. Now at the age of 24, Daniel’s versatility and musical ability has made him one of Australia’s in demand drummers. Currently playing and touring with Melbourne funk band The Bamboos, Daniel has also performed with a number of artists and bands including Rene Geyer, Missy Higgins, Eddie Bo (US), Joe Batan (US), Alice Russell (UK), The Quantic Soul Orchestra (UK), Mia Dyson, Doug Parkinson, Frock, and the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra.
