DANNY MACK - THE CEMENT CITY COWBOY |
|
"Danny
Mack is a pioneer and veteran of the Vancouver music scene known for his
signature sound and style. This newest release (Galaxy Cabaret) is proud, old fashioned, traditional country and
Mack does it with great affection and skill" "For
those of us who have been listening to Danny Mack’s music over the
years, it seems like he’s always been there. He is, if there ever was
one, the walking definition of a cosmic cowboy." “I
think Danny Mack is the best honky tonk Country singer in Canada”
TAMMY GISLASON – RECIPIENT OF THE
ACADEMY OF WESTERN ARTIST'S, WILL ROGERS AWARD IN TEXAS FOR "RISING
STAR OF THE YEAR". During his sprawling canvas of a career Danny Mack has
performed throughout Canada, in the USA, Australia and Europe playing
the full spectrum of venues from intimate coffee houses & soft seat
theatres to festivals and arenas with many thousands in attendance. He
is equally at home fronting a rocking five piece country band or sharing
the spotlight with his acoustic guitar. He has shared stages and bills
with many of the greats…. most recently with Corb Lund, Chip Taylor,
John Prine, Peter Case, Kevin Welsh, Kieran Kane & Lynn Miles and in
the past with the hippest acts in the business…B.B. King, The Doors,
The Byrds, Tommy Chong (Cheech & Chong), native spokesman Chief Dan
George, John Lee Hooker, The Sir Douglas Quintet, Jerry Jeff
Walker……..et al Danny Mack is an extraordinarily entertaining and
compelling live performer. He is able to connect on many emotional
levels with his audiences through his poignant earthy lyrics that are
refreshingly free from abstract mysteries…..he tells it like it is. Many
of Danny’s songs spin stories of pain, love and loss – themes he is
adept at tackling – he has lived it all. The messages are raw and
startling delivered with his signature gritty whiskey stained voice.
The man however has never lost sight of the humour and absurdity
found in the human condition and has the rare ability to move an
audience from tears to laughter with tales of his adventures and
characters met during a life time on the road. Danny’s music is sought out by movie and
television producers. His songs have found their way into film and
television productions including “We All Fall Down” (Martin Cummins,
Barry Pepper, Ryan Reynolds), “The Barber” ( Malcolm McDowell),
“Punch”, “Just Cause”, “Cold Squad” and the award winning
mini series “Human Cargo”.……etc. Danny Mack has something to say that is well worth
a listen. See more at
