About This Blog Thanks for stopping by the blog of singer/songwriter Dan Coyle; I'll keep this little gem up to date while on the road, writing, recording, and meeting my fans at shows. This may give you some insight into just how weird I can be - and all of the weird things I enjoy. There will be stories, poems, rants, musings, and other forms of writing that my feeble vocabulary cannot contend with. Hope you enjoy! Main Blog Page | November 2, 2011
Fan Questions Answered I have this nifty site where you can stop by and ask me anything. Fromtime to time folks do this, so I've chosen a few Q&A's to share with youthis week.
Q: How did you start playing guitar? You seem to have taken on an American Country style...Who is your mentor?
Q: Now that you've toured INTERnationally, what is next for you- and what have you taken away from this wonderful adventure?
Q: Where do you get most of your inspiration from?
A: In the past I never really knew where it came from - often it would come while listening to other music...so maybe that's it. But lately I've been taking much more time to craft my songs and I think this has helped me tap a source of inspiration. For my new album "From Prague To Paris" it was definitely travel. When I look at the list of songs, about 7 of the 10 songs have to do with travel. I still get inspiration from listening to new music...usually something I've never heard before will really strike me and give me a thought for a new song - music can be really kinetic in that way for me.
Q: Hello Dan,
A: My dream situation would be to have enough success to be able to keep on traveling, making music, and playing live shows. My favorite part of being a musician is the live shows, then writing songs, then recording. So if I can have enough success to just keep on moving, that would do it for me!
