Dan LaVelle has been playing the guitar since he was nine and did his first professional gig at age 12. Cutting his musical teeth on R&B/funk and soul of the 60s and 70s, he also has a strong background in all types of contemporary music styles from Brazilian to jazz. While just out of high school, he played local club dates and toured with many of the top bands in his hometown of Pittsburgh in the US. He was later invited to join the renowned R&B power band Pure Gold that toured across the US with acts like the Manhattan Transfer, Martha Reeves, and many others in the late 70s and early 80s.

During the mid-80s, Dan lived in Japan where he did both songwriting and club dates in the Kansai region of the country. In 1987, he arrived in Hong Kong as one of the first wave of Western musicians helping to build an international music scene in the territory. Since then, he has written songs for scores of top Canto-pop artists as well as the platinum-selling Filipino band Side A.

In 1998, he teamed up for several years with superb Asian contemporary vocalist Angelita Li in a highly acclaimed touring duo that showcased a strong Brazilian and jazz repertoire. In addition, later on while writing and arranging music for Disney and Pixar, LaVelle also began playing a number of local dates with top-flight jazz vocalist Jennifer Palor. This eventually led to their recording of the critically acclaimed CD - Jenerations on Tableau Records in 2008, co-produced by Roel Garcia.

He also works closely with nu-jazz vocalist Ginger Kwan as a composer and recording guitarist, as well as with the superb Tokyo-based pianist Yuki Makita and serves as arranger and touring guitarist for R&B vocalist Sybil Thomas.

In addition, over the past few years, Dan has performed with Grammy® award-winning saxophonist Eric Marienthal and serves as the music director for Montreux Jazz Festival award-winning singer Talie Monin. Weniger lesen
