Daniel Ahearn

About Me

------------------------------------------------------------ -------
"THE BEST OF THE BUNCH: Absolutely lovely....slice of genius...his voice is as clean as it can get, and you hear every crack, every breath countered by the beautifully-held notes" - Wireless Bollinger
"A small masterpiece...Ahearn couches both the ups and downs, the sunshine and the Santa Anas, of the West Coast" - 3Hive
"Nowadays...One of the greatest songs of 2008!" - AmericanaUk.com
"Daniel Ahearn of Ill Lit is one of those artists that other artists continually turn to for inspiration. His voice and words are pure and full of beauty—something we all work towards as writers" - Largehearted Boy
"It’s electronic alt-country, perfect for LA, where the man behind the music does his work." - Bon-Ton
"His sincerity and heart help you really attach yourself to the songs" - Herohill
"Gorgeous pop songs, the kind of things that would be soaring anthems if Ahearn trended that way. He doesn't, though, and the result is immeasurably more enjoyable gems, subtly crafted and sublimely played." - Aiding & Abetting

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 9/8/2007
Band Website: danielahearn.blogspot.com/
Band Members: I'll get back to you.
Influences:

Books, eavesdropping, the old world pharmaceuticals, time spent with david and the cmg, driving about with carrie, phone-calls from gina, a handful of boys from decades ago, the gentle constant tutelage of michael, the loose and somewhat clumsy years in new york, everything we left buried in the backyard in Indiana, everything you can dis about Los Angeles, Lance Faulk, a film douglas made a long time ago, a russian girl named Roxalanna to whom I wish I could just say "sorry, i was a mess." Those that left and those that remain. A gang of music from everywhere always. My mother's thick gorgeous courage,The world I never knew existed till I moved there. A walk franz took me on in the snow around Walden when the boots sarah made me where falling apart and taking in water. It goes on and on; the influences just continue and bewilder, but mostly I would say: love.

Sounds Like: a plan
Type of Label: Major
