Dan Hergert

Piano Man

 

It all started when…

I was a kid watching old Westerns. I so wanted to be the piano player in the saloon. Mayhem all around, yet coolly playing away. The rule was you never shoot the piano player - he’s equally loved by both the good and the bad. And here I am a half century later playing bars and clubs loving every minute of it.

As a soloist, I cover the classics from Cole Porter to Coldplay, Gershwin to Green Day, and a bit of everything in between. Best to have something for everyone. They’re all my own arrangements and interpretations.

I also compose original material. My ultimate dream is to write the title song the heroine sings in a Disney/Pixar classic.
