About

A founding member of the band Elephant Revival, Daniel wrote and sang some of their most well-known songs, such as Birds and Stars and Sing to the Mountain, to name only a couple. They disbanded in 2018 after playing their last show to a sold out Red Rocks. Creativity became a therapeutic balm in the wake of the breakup. He released his debut collection of songs, an EP titled Your Heart The Stars The Milky Way on February 15, 2019. His debut full-length album, Sojourn of a Burning Sun, was released on August 28th, 2020 on BMG Records.

He and his talented band opened for The Lumineers on their BRIGHTSIDE World Tour in July and August of 2022, playing to sold out arenas and stadiums across North America, with a special homecoming show in front of 40,000 fans in Denver, Colorado.

He has also performed with friends and heroes such as Gregory Alan Isakov, Ben Harper, John Craigie, Todd Snider and many more.

The Lumineers recorded and released one of Daniel’s songs after adding the words “Merry Christmas” to the chorus, turning it into an instant dark humored Christmas classic. This is Life (Merry Christmas) feat. Daniel Rodriguez was released in December of 2021.

He released his second full length album, Vast Nothing, in March this year.
