Fuse the characteristic sounds and rhythms of the Caribbean with the simplicity and purity of early rock and modern pop and you find the blueprint for the instrumental compositions of Dan "Dano" Lancelot. Embracing unique and distinctive instrumentation and employing an exhilarating combination of pop, reggae, rock, and steel drum arrangements, Dan produces atmospheres to delight and electrify.
Following a successful career as an alternative rock drummer, co-writer and founding member for RCA/Kneeling Elephant Records artist Gloritone, and touring drummer for Skunk recording artist Slightly Stoopid, Dan switched gears. Energized and motivated after traveling the Caribbean, Dan launched Dano's Island Sounds. Highlighting the steel pan and incorporating a crowd pleasing blend of original compositions, traditional Caribbean melodies, and pop cover songs Dano's Island Sounds entertains audiences of all ages throughout Southern California. Dano's Island Sounds released instrumental CD's "Pan in Paradise" in 2003 and "One Drop Pop" in 2007 to rave reviews.
Versatile and imaginative, Dan creates hooky melodies with driving rhythm. As producer, engineer and composer Dan brings together years of performance experience and collaborative writing skills with musical knowledge, instinct and passion. Dan is heavily influenced by The Police, The Beatles, Bob Marley, Henry Mancini, John Barry, Adam Schlessinger and a long list of Brit Pop, contemporary rock and reggae/world artists.
Additionally, Dano enjoys and is inspired by Sting, Paul McCartney, John Lennon, Billy Joel, Eagles, Buju Baton, Sublime, Weezer, Coldplay, Oasis, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Shaggy, James Brown, Black Eyed Peas, 311, Green Day, Slightly Stoopid, Duran Duran, Missing Persons, The Tubes, U2, Brian Setzer Orchestra, Dave Grusin, Boogsie Sharp, Harry Connick Jr., Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Carlos Jobin, Andy Narell, Jean-Luc Ponty, Monty Norman, Tito Puente, John Williams, Byron Lee and the Dragonaires & many artists of Reggae, Dub, Soca & Rapso.

author: Cindy A CruzThis CD is just what I was looking for. Some fresh sounds, some spicy oldies, and I LOVE the color (great marketing!). I keep "Dano's Island Sounds" CD in my car. I never have to change it, I just keep letting it play. Every beat of those steel drums is like a chiropractor for my brain. Thanx Dano, I hope to own another of your albums soon! Peace, Cindy.
