Daniel, who describes himself as a singer songwriter with autism, is forging a new path through the music scene in the UK and, through his inspirational gigs, portrays a much-needed positive image of learning disabled people in the media.

Daniel’s popularity in mainstream culture is partly due to his show-stealing appearances on Channel 4’s hit TV show “The Undateables”. Following his fourth appearance, which featured Daniel going on tour and performing his track Playboy Girls from first album The Songs of Gigs (released June 2016), there was an immediate and overwhelming response to his music. Another TV appearance in December 2017 built Daniel’s fanbase further with musician Frank Turner amongst them:

“A lot of people know of Daniel from a TV show. I just heard his music...and instantly fell in love with it. The show I caught in London recently was an absolute delight, sheer joy and showmanship with wonderful songs.” Frank Turner, Trebuchet Magazine online, 30 Jan 2018
