- On his debut record, I Am Merely Sand, Daniel can be heard on guitars, keyboard instruments, percussion, and drums (his first love). Joining him on guitar is Nashville session player Pat Bergeson, protégé of legendary guitarist Chet Atkins, heard with Alison Krauss, Kenny Rogers, JoDee Messina, Emmylou Harris, Trace Adkins, Suzy Bogguss, Phil Keaggy, Roy Clark, Jeff Coffin, Randy Travis, Lyle Lovett, and many more. Another session professional, Charlie Chadwick, performs bass guitar responsibilities, and engineers the album. Chadwick, who has been heard with Pam Tillis, Steve Earle, Colin Raye, Bill Anderson, John Jorgenson, Jamie Hartford, Jill Sobule, John Carter Cash, Lynda Carter, Muriel Anderson, and David Lee Roth (to name a few), earned his second Grammy® Award for his work on Peter Frampton's Fingerprints project, and is the inventor of the Chadwick Folding Bass. I Am Merely Sand includes the song “New Sun Rising,” which charted on the International Association of Independent Recording Artists’ (IAIRA) Top 100.
