CATCH THE BAND AT BILLY’S MARCH 8TH
Who are your influences? Led Zeppelin, Bootsy Collins, Jimi Hendrix, Steve Vai, Incubus, Cody Canada, Keith Urban and Brad Paisley. Describe you sound for our readers? We are country rock. Harley, Jesse, and Steven bring the rock side of things and Lance brings the country. It makes for a pretty nice combonation. How did you get into music? Steven started playing in his dad's band on guitar and bass. Jesse comes from a family with a deep musical background, his dad plays guitar and sings, and his grandmother sang with some local well known artist. Harley fell in love with music as a baby and has been beating on things ever since. Lance grew up listening to country music and began playing guitar at 15, music has been his passion ever since. What do you like about the Macon music scene? Being able to just play music, the variety of music, and beer! We’ve played the Bird, Billy’s, Grant’s Lounge and Juliette a time or two.

Tell us about your favorite moment on stage? We played a show at the Hummingbird last year and the crowd was really into it and singing along. That was a very rewarding feeling when you feel the energy from that, it's a great high that nothing can compare to. And one of us ended up wearing a pink tank top before the night was over. What's next for Lance Daniel Band? Just play. Keep expanding our horizons and our fan base. It's been a really great start since our first show in August, we've learned alot along the way, and we want to see it continue.
