Interview with Dan Davidson

In The Country with Dave Woods

Alberta's Dan Davidson visits the ITC podcast to chat about his new EP 6 Songs To Midnight! Of the new record, Dan says: "This record is, in many ways, the 'period on the sentence' of an important part of my growth as an artist. I find this record to be a transitional statement as I step towards what feels like a new level in my career as an artist and songwriter. Its a collection of tunes that I’m really proud of; there are a bunch of songs that I’ve released over the last year or so plus a few new ones some fans wont have heard yet!" Dan Davidson exploded onto the Canadian country scene in 2016 when the release of his second single “Found” (co-written by Clayton Bellamy of The Road Hammers) sky-rocketed up the charts and he became the #1 charting indie artist in Canada. It was also the #1 selling Canadian country song for several weeks and went on to become certified GOLD in Canada. Dan spent over 10 years playing in the well-known Canadian indie rock band Tupelo Honey, who had several top 40 hits, top selling iTunes records and toured with bands like Bon Jovi. Dan recently received 6 Country Music Alberta nominations (Industry Person of the Year, Horizon Male Artist of the Year, Interactive Artist of the Year, Video of the Year, and two Songwriter of the Year noms). Outside of releasing music, Dan has been writing for/with Gord Bamford, Tim Hicks, W3apons, Stereos, The Congregation, Chad Brownlee, The Standstills, and many more. As a songwriter, he has had multiple Top 40 songs across three genres, and as a producer, has worked on three Top 30 tracks in both rock & country.
