About Me

Singer, guitarist and songwriter Dan Acfield's music has been described as "urban folk", yet it is unquestionably more complex and eclectic in nature than this label conveys. Drawing from a myriad of eclectic influences, ranging from world music to progressive rock, Dan's music is a tasteful and distinctive blend of inventive songwriting and accessible music. Accompanied by unadulterated, yet amazing vocals, talented and accomplished band members, as well as melodies that will remain with you for days, Dan Acfield is an upcoming artist to be reckoned with.

Having gone solo during mid-2006, Dan continues to establish himself as a prominent Brisbane musical artist and performer. As a regular performer around reputable venues in Brisbane, Dan has featured as an artist on rawaudio.net, experienced local airplay and was a finalist for the 2006-2007 Soma Singer-Songwriter Search Competition. Dan's performances are more engaging, entertaining and assured than ever before. Stay tuned for the EP coming soon!
