Dan was born in the small town of Niagara Falls, New York on April 19th, 1987. At an early age it was obvious that Dan was a talented guitarist, but it was unknown that he would take part in the rock legends known as label crisis. He started off playing in studios at age 8, and as time progressed he crafted his own album that he thought would change the industry. But being 8 year old solo artist, not much could be accomplished without a fanbase. In September 2000 Dan started his tour across the US with hardcore rapper Slim JG, Toni Braxton, and Neil Diamond. The tour was a flop and didnt do much for the artist. Dan then took a break from touring for a while and limited himself to play at local bars in western New York. It was during this break that the semblance of a rock band would form. At Club Rio in 2001, Dan was scheduled to play but the manager scheduled 2 musical groups for the night. "Label Crisis" (Then Walck, Tim, Aklex and Mat) and "Fasciano" shared the stage in a 4 hour jam session that produced a new sound that touched the hearts of all who heard it. Perhaps it was a mistake that brought them together, or perhaps it was a fate decided by the gods of rock... Ever since that day, Dan has played with the ever changing "Label Crisis" in an effort to change the world with their music.
