CHECK OUT THIS VERY COOL PERSONAL MESSAGE FROM DAN FOR YORK AND FIBBERS… !!

Never far from like-minded genius, guitarist, singer/songwriter and globally respected purveyor of the blues, DAN PATLANSKY, is hailed as one of the world’s finest blues-based storytellers of his generation.

Ever since his debut album, Standing At The Station, followed by 2004 major label (Blue Note, EMI produced) masterstroke True Blues, Dan has been immersing himself in the rich and rollicking world of blues rock music.

In February 2005, and again in July 2006, Selwyn Miller, the New Orleans-based manager of David Gates, Bread, Randy Crawford and Petula Clark , took Patlansky to New Orleans to showcase his outstanding talent where Fender acknowledged this with a guitar and amp endorsement, making him only one of six on the continent to enjoy such a privilege.

As Dan settled into his groove, a barrage of brilliantly executed eclectic and acoustic blues albums followed. 2006 brought Real; Move My Soul in 2009; 20 Stones in 2012, and the unplugged wonder of 2013’s acoustically anchored Wooden Thoughts.

With each new release, Patlansky’s albums brought a tighter and more engaging lyrical twist and even more interesting turns, all of which led beautifully to his much anticipated 2014 full electric album released in the May.

And now the South African singer-songwriter and guitarist is set to release his new album ‘Dear Silence Thieves’ in the UK on Monday April 27th.

Dear Silence Thieves was recently voted the No.1 album in the world in Blues Rock Review’s Top 20 Blues Albums of 2014. Check out the poll HERE.

Patlansky started 2014 off with a bang when he was chosen to open for Bruce Springsteen in front of 64.000 people at the FNB Stadium in Johannesburg in February on his High Hopes tour. Personally approved by Springsteen as support act, this was the biggest audience Patlansky had ever played to.

“After over a decade of making albums for us, Dan’s seventh album continues to deliver the goods that have made him the premier blues rock guitar player in South Africa, if not one of the top in the world.” – Blues Rock Review

In December 2014, DEAR SILENCE THIEVES (produced by Theo Crous) was nominated as the No. 1 Blues Rock Album in the world released for 2014 by BLUES ROCK REVIEW, alongside Joe Bonamassa, Rival Sons, Devon Allman, The Black Keys, Philip Sayce and many more.

“I’m the chef and my songs are recipes music fans can most certainly try at home”, says Dan. The secret ingredients now percolating, the only way to get any closer to the stuff of legend is to catch him live, in concert, where Dear Silence Thieves enjoys a nightly remix.
