Chanteur
Country Canadien né en 1985 à Welland (Ontario).
An
insightful and subtly witty singer and songwriter whose music reflects
Nashville's countrypolitan era while his lyrics follow a deeper and more
insightful path, Daniel Romano was born in Welland, a city in Southern Ontario,
Canada, in 1985. Romano's parents were folks musicians while his grandparents
were fans of vintage country, and he grew up with a taste for classic folk and
country sounds; he also developed a proficiency on a number of instruments,
including guitars, drums, pedal steel, and keyboards. But while he was in high
school, Daniel and his brother Ian Romano were bitten by the punk rock bug after
hearing straight edge pioneers Minor Threat, and the siblings formed the indie
punk band Attack in Black. While Attack in Black developed a loyal following in
their native Canada, and their second album Marriage earned the group an award
as NXNE Favourite New Indie Record Release at the 2007 CASBY Awards, bad
business deals made trouble for the band, and they released their final album in
2009. (During Attack in Black's run, Romano also landed a side gig as drummer
and multi-instrumentalist with City & Colour, a project led by Dallas Green of
Alexisonfire.) Frustrated with the music business, Romano channelled his
emotions into new songs that reflected his country influences, and after forming
You've Changed Records with Steve Lambke of the Constantines, he released 2009's
Daniel, Fred & Julie, a collaborative session with fellow songwriters Julie
Doiron and Frederick Squire. Romano used his experiences in Attack in Black as
the basis for his first solo effort, 2010's Workin' for the Music Man, which
Romano recorded in his own private studio, with the artist handling nearly all
the instruments himself, a practice he would follow on most of his subsequent
work. Romano's second country album, 2011's Sleep Beneath the Willow, received a
longlist nomination for that year's Polaris Music Prize, awarded to the year's
outstanding Canadian album regardless of genre or commercial success. In 2013,
Romano struck a deal with an American label, Normaltown Records, a subsidiary of
New West Records devoted to up and coming independent artists, and Normaltown
gave Romano his first U.S. solo release, Come Cry With Me. Romano was moved to
the official New West Records roster for his next album, 2015's If I've Only One
Time Askin'. During his downtime from music, Romano is also a successful graphic
designer and a talented leather worker.
