Dan McGuinness / Blue Diamond Revival

Blue Eyed Soul With a Twist

About Me

US Summer & Fall Dates Being Announced Now!!To call Dan McGuinness a singer is an understatement. Dan’s voice harkens a listener’s memory back to a time when Blue Eyed Soul ruled the radio. Full and powerful, Dan’s voice can go from edgy and rough to soft and delicate in an instant. His incredible range and perfect pitch are complimented by his expert technique and his soft touch. In constant demand not only as a singer but as a voice over specialist, announcer and sports radio broadcaster, Dan is no longer Chicago’s best kept secret. For Dan McGuinness, singing rock & roll, songwriting and performance is something very close to his heart. A childhood fan of John Fogerty and CCR, Dan grew up listening to every album and bootleg he could get his hands on. His interpretation and delivery of the songs are right on the mark and he consistently wows audiences with his live performances. Whatever the song, old or new, Dan McGuinness’ voice takes you by the hand and leads you to the core of the musical journey.Check out my online radio show 'Daytime Debauchery' on Chicago based www.FearlessRadio.com. Every Mon, Wed, Friday from 11 am - 2 pm CT.
