LETTERS TO THE FUTURE OUT NOW!
It's here! The new album Letters To The Future has been released! It's available on itunes and other leading online music stores around the world. (CDs will be available in selected stores soon) You can find the album on itunes here

Letters To The Future was co-produced by Danny and Seth Suter and was recorded in various locations, including a theatre, a warehouse and a dance studio. Danny invited many of his musician friends to play on the album and gave them all freedom to write their own parts. The result is a broad, deep tapestry of influences and personalities, boldly sophisticated in the performances, while remaining inspired, loose and human in it's feel and vibe. Every song has it's own distinct personality as the album swings effortlessly between genres.

Danny has also re-thought the business model behind the album. "We all know the music industry is struggling and evolving right before our eyes. The old model isn't working anymore, so Seth and I decided to experiment with a different approach. All we did was apply some basic business principles, but it's changed everything and I'm really pleased with how it's all turned out so far."
