Catskeller

Grandiose piano playing, a showman’s voice, and a happy-go-lucky attitude are just a few reasons Dan Orlando is bound to become a household name. He’s a young wizard on the ivory keys and there’s no telling where his talent will plateau. Hailing from Pennsylvania, Dan picked up the piano at the ripe age of 6 when he pl...ayed a few licks from memory at a local piano shop. The storeowner heard this prodigal child and announced she was coming out of retirement to teach him. Dan began polishing his skills in classical piano, jazz, and blues, to go along with an in-depth knowledge of music theory. These formative years, and a couple of stints in bands, helped Dan realize his lifelong dream of becoming a successful singer/songwriter. Dan is a graduate of Avon Grove High School in West Grove PA and also a member of the Acoustic Groove Project. Dan is currently enrolled at the University of Cincinnati’s College Conservatory of Music. As he continues to hone his craft and knowledge, Dan has put together an impressive repertoire of music. He released his debut album, “Stepping Stones” in 2007 and just recently recorded a self-titled 5-track EP.Read More

Let’s forget for a minute that Wally.Vega is the hottest thing since pants with pockets and realize that he is young just like you, loves music just like you, comes from a broken home just like you, is a struggling student like you, and likes to party on days that end in Y just like you.
But that isn’t why you like him... so much.
You admire the way he makes you want to change the world with his compelling metaphors that defy every dimension of creativity; you love the way he can make your ears sweat with his smooth vernacular as his words prance into your brain and take you to a twilight zone of euphoria.
Ooooooor…… maybe you’re just bored and need to pass some time. Either way, you’re here… so seize the day and take a look around. Find out what all the fuss is about.
After all, he’s just a clever kid from Ohio who is hell bent on making a difference in your world
