NEW ALBUM “Troubadour Family Man”

Coming September 2022

After a round of great success with his 2018 EP 25 Years, well-traveled veteran singer, songwriter and self-proclaimed “Troubadour Family Man” Dan Rodriguez digs deeper into his Americana soul roots on his rollicking new single and video “Passenger,” released May 14, 2021.

An honest assessment of where he’s been and where he’s headed personally and professionally at age 35, the track takes a slightly humorous yet pointed and introspective look at the good and bad choices he has made in his life, taking stock and confronting those angels and demons – with an eye towards committing to being a better person.

The first thing that hits you is this amazingly smooth voice, so warm and comforting that you immediately accept everything he says at face value.

A performer who has made a definite mark in an era when it’s increasingly hard for performers to break through to that level.

BIO

Hi, I’m Dan. I’m a whiskey & beer drinking, fishing & hunting loving, motorcycle riding, quality food eating, hippie sympathizing, people loving, husband & father who lives in Minneapolis and shares a life with my amazing wife and two adorable sons named Oak and Alder. I grew up in the suburbs of Detroit, MI, and moved to Minneapolis when I was 18 to study music, and I stayed because I’m one of those crazy people that enjoys the snow and cold weather.

Music is my trade & performing it for people is my passion. When I’m not in my studio writing songs and cutting records, or on the road playing shows, I’m usually tending to our backyard chickens, eating fresh veggies from my wife’s huge garden, making syrup from our city maples, or doing one of my many outdoor hobbies.

Now here are a few things about my music career that I should probably share in a music bio:

• In September 2014 Budweiser released their "Friends Are Waiting" commercial campaign featuring me singing my song When You Come Home and it premiered during the Super Bowl.

• In February, 2018, I released my newest album 25 Years and is the most prolific and widely distributed album to date, featuring songs that have been placed in major ads as well as widely played Spotify playlists.

• In October, 2018, Miller Lite featured my newest single “So Good” in one of their commercials that played for months during NFL games on ESPN & more.

• In March, 2019, my song “You Feel Like Home” was featured in Explore Minnesota Tourism’s newest ad campaign.

• Over the years I’ve had the honor of sharing the stage with some really cool artists & bands including The Civil Wars, Andy Grammer, Eric Hutchinson, Matt Nathanson, NeedtoBreathe, Augustana, Tyrone Wells, Haley Reinhart, Jon McLaughlin, Will Hoge, Drew Holcomb, Sister Hazel, and more.
