Raised throughout the Great American Southwest to revere the fiercely independent spirit of its native tribes and pioneer immigrants, RJ DANIEL'S experience ranging from farming with Hopi elders to herding Navajo livestock forged his soul in the fires of spiritual truth with the hammer of hard experience to create a man, an artist, and a sound that offers no excuses and makes no apologies.

His remarkable debut album explores a musical hybrid of traditional sound and contemporary passion to create an exciting musical signature. Whether hard charging or sweetly sentimental, it indelibly evokes the tumbleweed rhythms and bittersweet memories born of the West.
