A great EP, hope there's much more to come.

This is a great selection of tunes from an excellent singer/songwriter. I am lucky enough to have seen him live, well worth it, the combination of guitar and effects board are unsurpassed, I've never seen anyone make better use of it.
The songs are well written and they work on many levels, they are good ust to listen to as backgound to whatever you are doing, but they also have a lot of subtance in the lyrics.
If you get a chance to see him live, grab it. It is an experience not to be missed!
A little bit Johnny Cash?

Ever the showman, this EP is a great taster of exactly what you can expect from Dan if you see him live...and there is a good chance you will at some time in your life. Not only does he regularly guest with some of the biggest names in the folk-rock industry, but he's also one of the world's hardest-working solo performers, notching up a seemingly endless series of festivals, gigs and front-room parties as he hauls his battered guitar and loop boxes from town to English town.
The Running EP captures a sense of both escape and search. Is Dan trying to get away from something, or is he one of life's eternal seekers - always on the hunt for that elusive dream?
Whichever - every person who buys these songs is doing their bit to help Dan on his endless journey...and if you're going to do something worthwhile today then this is it.
Oh yes - and not only that, but they are VERY GOOD as well!
