A BRIEF HISTORY OF DAN MAXWELL & HIS BAND

Dan Maxwell, like the rest of the members of his band, grew up listening to and playing music whenever he had the chance. In early 2005 Dan Maxwell gathered fellow musicians Ben Lindeman and Tom Galton, and the trio honed their mix of original alt. country/rock songs and covers. Within a year, the band headed to Woodstock with producer J.P. Bowersock (a member of Ryan Adams and The Cardinals) to record their first EP, which expressed the down to earth rock style their fanbase had become accustomed to.

Since then, with the addition of multi-instrumentalist Evan Taylor, the group has recorded several more tracks amidst playing countless shows throughout New Jersey and the New York City circuit. Venues that have presented Dan Maxwell & His Band range from bars to recognized stages at such clubs as the Knitting Factory and Kenny's Castaways. It was those experiences close to home that took the quartet on a very successful first national tour in June of 2007 self-financed, self-booked, and self-promoted.

Remaining true to their roots and their influences, Dan Maxwell & His Band is about writing rock songs that can temper a bar or engage a venue.
