About Me

On April 3rd, 2009, Dan Cloutier and his Band recorded a brand new CD in front of a sold out audience at the Amazing Things Arts Center in Framingham MA. It was the best show Dan ever played, and the first time he ever sold out a room. The night was the culmination of a few incredible years in Dan's music. Since his last record, 2006's "Bottles and Seeds," Dan has been the opening act for such legends in the song-writing community as John Hiatt, Richie Haves, Ellis Paul, and John Gorka. He also played countless solo shows across all of New England at some of the regions most prestigious venues including Club Passim, Tupelo Music Hall, and the mentioned above Amazing Things Arts Center. The Noise magazine of Boston recently stated, "Cloutier proves his musical clout without flaunting it, leaving this audience in good spirits and satisfied." Insite Boston Magazine has also stated, "Cloutier puts his money where his mouth is. On and off stage one can be proud to be a fan of Dan." The new live CD should be completed in the summer of 2009. The good times will roll, and Dan will continue on his musical journey. I hope you can be part of it.Dan Cloutier's Hockey Fight!!!! (try and stop me!)
