Album Notes

That’s What I’m Here For, the latest CD from Kansas City guitarist Dan Bliss, was released in December 2007. Featuring 12 new original songs, this self produced CD follows his first release, Open For Business.

Bliss keeps a busy performance schedule around the Midwest and has appeared three times at the New York State Blues Festival. He has twice made the top three (2005 & 2007) in the International Fingerstyle Guitar Championship at the Walnut Valley Festival in Winfield, KS and has opened shows for artists such as Steve James, Marcia Ball, Honeyboy Edwards, Henry Townsend, Johnnie Johnson, Kelley Hunt, The Waybacks, John McCutcheon and fingerstyle guitar masters Nick Charles and Tim Thompson.

Originally from upstate New York, Bliss has made his home for over 20 years in Kansas City, inspired by the traditions of blues and jazz and the incredible wealth of local talent. While his focus is solo acoustic performance, he has also played with Kelley Hunt and his own band Bluetonium. In addition to solo shows he also currently appears with fellow Kansas City guitarists Rod Fleeman, Tom DeMasters and Bill Dye in a blues & jazz guitar quartet called “KC GUITAR 4.”

That What I'm Here For

I love this CD! All the songs are great but I can't get enough of "Make A Move". If it doesn't get your head bouncing back and forth on the way to work, nothing will!

I was waiting eagerly for the second CD. Worth the wait. More excellent tunes from a man with style. I wore the grooves off this CD.

Enjoyed the Music and the finger picking very much. Was especially interested in Martisco Breakdown as is just down the road from me. Same for Nine Mile Creek Blues as it runs thru my backyard. NICE CD!

Loved the entire album. A great piece of work that is especially appreciated by those of us who are still in central N.Y. I bought 3 of the CDs and they are being equally enjoyed by each of three generations.
