About Me

Hey I'm Danzo. I play guitar and sing in a band called Buzz Factor from Michigan's Upper Peninsula. When I'm not doing that, I teach guitar and play acoustic solo gigs, and I also host a really fun acoustic open mic every thursday night at Rumorz in Ishpeming. I play mostly my own renditions of older songs, plus some newer material as well. I play a few originals from time to time too. I enjoy sippin' a few beers and strummin' away while interacting with the patrons at the local watering holes. It's a great departure from Buzz Factor, which explores the louder, sweatier side of music! So come on down, holler out a request, but for cryin' out loud, buy me a beer!
