HEADLINE: Interview with DANNY JOHN TRIO
ARTICLE TEXT:
Q. At what age did you realize you wanted to become a music artist and why?
When I was 12, watching Eddie Van Halen, Gary Moore, Angus Young and all the girls @ school swoon over another guy who played Guitar who was a bit older and a bit better than me.
Q. Most music artists have that special someone or thing that influenced their decision to do music. Did anyone or something in your life play a major role in influencing you to go into the music business?
Playing music in front of alot of people from a young age made me feel like I stood out from the croud, that I was doing something special that others couldn't do, plus I was a quick learner and quite quickly I was playing Van Halen and Satch stuff, which others my age wern't doing.
Q. In terms of the music, which major artist(s) influenced your style and why?
Eddie, Frank (Gambale), Gary Moore, Jeff Beck, EC, Ritchie Kotzen amongst others.
Q. With so many independent artists trying to make it, what makes you stand out from the competition?
Originality, Musicianship, Hook, Stagecraft, Energy, Virtuosity.
Q. Music industry professionals are quick to say that being an artist means to gracefully fit a marketable niche in the industry. If you were offered an opportunity that asked you to be something you are not, would you do it to get your foot in the door?
Havn't done that as yet though there have been offers, so I don't see myself doing it at this stage.
Q. Making music is one thing, selling it is another. What types of strategies do you use in promoting your artistic work and getting it heard by the proper professionals?
The usual.
Q. In regards to wheeling and dealing, how important do you feel business knowledge is to making it in an industry filled with much heartache?
I'm just doing my thing, if people want to hear or promote it, they can do it on my terms.
Q. Let's fast forward to 5 years from now. What advice would you offer to struggling independent artists?
Just keep the faith and keep going, always look in the mirror and see if you are still being honest to your vision.
Q. Most successful artists are involved in charitable organizations that stand for a cause that hits close to home. In that regard, once you reach success, what charitable cause(s) would you like to be involved in and why?
Ones that are truely charitable
Well, we thank you for taking the time to interview with us and certainly wish you the best in your music career endeavors. There you have it ladies and gentlemen, an inside look into the mind of an independent artist struggling to bring their hard work to fruition in an industry where perseverance and thick skin means survival. No one said it would be easy.
