Dan Sawyer has just completed his first CD of ukulele music. It includes original compositions for the uke and also jazz, blues and bluegrass. "I'm trying to expand the boundaries of uke music by bringing in new styles and techniques." Dan started playing the uke at 10 years old when his father came home with a Martin soprano uke. "The ukulele holds a special place in my heart. It just has some magic quality that makes you want to play it."
Dan Sawyer "Soybean" is also composer and musician. He has been working in the animation field since 1991 when he created the music for Nickelodeon's Doug. Since that time he has written the music for many TV and film projects including 101 Dalmations, LA Lakers, Disney's Stanley and Survivor.

Dan Sawyer's Uke Of Ages is a beautifully conceived, arranged and performed collection of eclectic songs for this unique instrument. The selections, of various styles, have kept me entertained over and over. The swinging Sheik, the grooving Sloop John B, Coming Home, and his fine vocal style make this a winner for me! It's a one-of-a-kind. Five stars!
