CANCELED: Dan Navarro Band
to
Capital Brewery, Middleton 7734 Terrace Ave., Middleton, Wisconsin 53562
press release: For over thirty years, Dan Navarro has written, sung, played and acted his way through a rich and varied career…and nothing's gonna stop him, not even a broken wrist! What could slow down or even bring a halt to another musicians career only provides a new dynamic for Dan. After just a few weeks out for surgery to insert a plate and some screws, Dan's back on the road to share his amazing repertoire of songs w/ side guys along to accompany him on guitar until he's totally rehabed.
Dan started his career as a songwriter, often with Eric Lowen, for artists as diverse as Pat Benatar (the Grammy-nominated “We Belong” - spotlighted in the new moviePitch Perfect 2 - in theaters now), The Bangles, Jackson Browne, Keb’ Mo’, Dave Edmunds, The Temptations, Dionne Warwick, Dutch superstar Marco Borsato, The Triplets, Austin outlaw legend Rusty Weir and many more...
In the ‘90s, he recorded and toured with Lowen in the acclaimed acoustic duo Lowen & Navarro until Eric’s retirement in 2009. Dan has since transitioned into a solo career, increasingly in demand on the national concert circuit...
When not on the road, Dan is busy wearing several other hats. He is a voice actor in major motion pictures such as Happy Feet, The Lorax and Ice Age to name a few; in numerous television series – currently on Family Guy, American Dad; and hundreds of national commercials – Toyota, Coca-cola, McDonalds – the list goes on and on. Most recently, Dan voiced the character CHAKAL, the ‘rampaging, metal-encased monster’ in the animated, fantasy-comedy The Book of Life.
On the side, he serves on the boards of SAG-AFTRA(Vice President), Folk Alliance, The Levitt Pavilions LA and the ALS Assoc. AND he contributes countless hours in DC talking on issues of intellectual property, copyright and performer’s rights on behalf of NSAI, AFTRA, NARAS, BMI, SoundExchange and others. And always happy to help out friends with their musical endeavors - you can hear Dan on JANIVA MAGNESS’s recent album Original on the single With Love (featuring Dan Navarro)
After 23 years and 12 albums with Lowen & Navarro, Dan released “Live at McCabes” and his first studio album of new material “Shed My Skin” is almost ready for release.
...and, if all that weren’t enough, he is the father of an 19-year-old son in college in NYC and a known abuser of acoustic guitars.
