Dan Veall

Bio

A busy professional musician and teacher, Dan still makes time to also write his own tuition column every month in the worldwide Bass Player Magazine, closing each edition with well researched technical content that is still accessible to the novice player. "I know how difficult it was when I first started playing to find this very information and have it explained in an understandable format and that's exactly what I try to do each month with my reviews and magazine columns".

Dan Veall started an almost obsessive journey of self-study in instrument and music technology from a very young age. Indeed before the internet, he would have electronic and schematic diagrams faxed through from major MI companies, where he would put his teenage electronics skills to good use building signal processors of his own that he couldn't purchase.

Dan is no stranger to international music projects and is associated with Ostura, the Lebanese cinematic progressive metal band, who released the album The Room with an incredible roster of guest musicians joining Dan. Dan and Thomas Lang provided the rhythm section backbone throughout the album. Additionally, Marco Sfogli and Arjen Lucassen's talents were enlisted and cinematic soundscapes could not have sounded better having The City Of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra as bandmates throughout the production.

Dan teaches privately from his own studio in the UK.
