Video Premiere! // Boston Saturday & Philly Sunday! // Kittens!

Hey folks,

How are you? I'm so good thanks. Recently when Donald Trump questioned my birth certificate, acclaimed Director Stu Weinstock shot gorgeous footage of the sunrise over NYC's Central Park, and I'm there too sporting dramatic facial expressions. Without further ado, here is your Music Video Premiere for Always On My Way.

And I hate to ask for your help but I'm only human folks, flesh and blood. Which reminds me, Happy Easter! The Danny Ross Mini-Tour Choo Choo is leaving the station for a triumphant Saturday return to Boston and our debut in sunny Philadelphia. If you could PRETTY PLEASE WITH CHERRIES 1) Invite your Boston and Philly friends to the FB events below and 2) 'Share' on your wall. World domination is only possible with your willingness to comply and follow blindly.

VH1 Storytellers: Saturday 11 @ The Living Room // Motown Philly

Hey folks,

What's the deal with this weather? First it's hot, then it's not so hot with the rain and the grey and the wet. Like a mushy Schimmel's knish. I am right or am I right.... But seriously, is I'm right? Not sure when I turned into a borscht-belt shoemaker but we can all agree, at least I'm not this guy. Speaking of drunk-dialing, come see my show!

Danny Ross: Storytellers
Saturday April 16, 11pm Sharp, FREE!
@ The Living Room, 154 Ludlow St at Stanton, NYC
* With besties The Lesser Ghost at 8pm
FB Event Page

As a respite from our usual break-your-neck rock n roll extravaganza, I'll be joined Saturday by strings, pedal-steel and guest singers for a VH1 Storytellers format evening of folk, complete with explanations of bad songs that need no explanation. I mentioned it's free.

And good news! Thanks to the huge support in beantown, we've graduated to a Saturday night slot @ Boston's Middle East April 30th 9pm. And the next night we're playing our Philly Debut @ The Tin Angel, Sunday May 1st 8pm. I call it the Danny Ross Mini-Tour Express: Choo Choo. I guess you could call it a little east coast fling.

A sheynem dank!

MTV // Opening for Paula Cole? I Don't Wanna Wait...Tues 8pm @ City Winery

Hey folks,

I must be having a Lilith Fair moment because not only did I chill with Lisa Loeb yesterday, but I'm opening for Dawson's Creek phenom Paula Cole Tuesday night with a solo set at the beautiful City Winery. Do Do Dooo Do Do Do. Seriously though, where did all the cowboys actually go? I'll ask backstage.

Save as Draft

Danny Ross Opening for Paula Cole at City Winery

Tuesday March 22, 8pm Sharp
@ City Winery, 155 Varick St at Vandam St - Soho NYC
1 to Houston St // ACE to Spring St

Tickets Here

Thanks gang and here's some new press!

• Our song "Forgive Me Love" was featured on MTV's 16 and Pregnant (about 19:00) and Teen Mom, I guess that's my demographic, what the hell? Along with other tunes on the History Channel's American Pickers and E! News Live.
  
• "Ross inherits a clear Beatles influence that runs through the tracks accompanied by touches of alt-country artists such as Ryan Adams and Wilco as well as ‘60s soul that coalesce into dynamic, lush piano-pop... One Way, with its eclectic nature, may just be his White Album, a pleasing presentation of a wide range of fine songwriting." -- Deli Magazine NYC Feature "Danny Ross: Pop Chameleon"

• "It was clear that the crowd got into the music quickly and stayed with him from the opening number to the last song. Ross was interested in creating his own sound… He stayed true to his word, putting on quite a show and enjoying the hell out of it. Those who were there got to see what a delight it is to watch Ross, a hungry and talented artist, play his heart out on stage." Tufts Daily "Danny Ross Interview and Boston Concert Review"

Saturday 11pm - Headlining Mercury Lounge for Live Album Recording [in 3D]

Hey folks,

I'm gonna be perfectly honest with you here. I'm a little sleepy. You're right, I celebrated National Pancake Week with a little too much gusto this year, and it didn't help that I was simultaneously engineering the Carmelo Anthony trade. But what I'm truly exhausted from is preparing the most stimulating night of sight and sound since Rick Moranis wowed America with "Suddenly Seymour."

That's right, we're recording a live album Saturday night at NYC's legendary Mercury Lounge with the nine-piece band and horns! Look for Steven Segal on bass. And I'm asking the audience to record the music video on your cell phones and Flip Cams. Hear yourself "Woooo" in real time audio...

Danny Ross and the Saturday Night Band Live Album Recording @ Mercury Lounge!

Saturday February 26, 11pm Sharp// Followed by high school bandmates Mercury Landing~

@ Mercury Lounge, 217 Houston St at Essex NYC
* This show will likely sell out, please get Advanced Tickets Here.

We want this record to be on par with 1986's ABBA Live. So, as I've been telling friends, I hate to ask for the help but it's a huge show (and album) for me and it would mean the world if you could help pack the place by bringing a few close BFFs. You can click "Select Guests to Invite" on the left or 'Share' on top of our Shmancy FB Event Page. Thanks again guys, see you at the spot.

PS - And thanks Boston for packing the Middle East last week, snarky videos to come. Because of you we'll be headlining a Saturday night in the very near future. DC and Philly, you're next. MUHAHAHA

Do You uhh Have Friends in uhh Boston? // Live Album Show Sat Feb 26 at Mercury Lounge!

Hey folks,

How's stuff and things? First off, we're playing our Boston debut this Sunday night 8pm at the famous Middle East. To prepare, I'm dusting off my copy of With Honors and priceless footage of Boston Terriers. I should also hide my "Patriots and Red Sox are Inferior Teams" coffee mug. Yikes.

Do you have a few close friends in beantown? It's our first out-of-town show ever at a major venue and I only know a handful of folks out there. I hate to ask for your help and want to thank you in advance, but would you mind quickly forwarding this email or inviting them via our FB Event Page?

And secondly, we're capping off the winter with our BIGGEST NYC SHOW EVER. In fact, it's so big we're recording it for a live album to be released this summer, and I want you to bring your mobile devices and Flip Cams to shoot the video for us. The full band and horns, new songs, all the hits and the Rockettes? This show will sell out so please get Advanced Tickets Here.

Danny Ross and the Saturday Night Band Live Album Show @ Mercury Lounge!

Saturday February 26, 11pm Sharp
@ Mercury Lounge, 217 Houston St at Essex // Followed by old friends Mercury Landing

Thanks, and hit me back with a good opening line for the Boston crowd. Winner gets my hancock on a printer read-out of the Declaration of Independence (and a free shirt). All the best.

Saturday 8pm @ Rockwood Stage 2 // Duet with David Bowie

Hey folks,

What the hell. Why is everyone getting sick this time of year. And by everyone I mean me. I know what you're thinking: "But Danny, you're like Superman, or more like that nerdy jewish guy in the Green Hornet. You should be healthy as a clam." Now folks, I don't claim to know the immune systems of most shell fish - only Rocky Mountain Oysters (props midwesterners!). But I do know three things: 1) How to write three bitchin new songs for the Saturday Night Band and 2) How to put on a rock n roll show to make you drop out of law school and wish you never heard of tort reform. Just don't join the mob.

Thankfully I'm back to full health so we'll be back back in Cali Cali. See you for our debut gig at this beautiful new masterpiece venue the Rockwood folks put together. And what's that? The third thing I know? Karate. I have a white belt in karate.

PS - I know Rex is keeping his mouth shut for those reverent classy Steelers, but I have no such hesitation. Those yellow towels really are terrible, hardly absorb anything. Try Bounty, the quilted quicker picker-upper... Nailed em, go Jets!

2011 Heaven // Saturday Jan 22nd 8pm, Rockwood Stage 2

Hey folks,

Happy new year old friends and fellow foot-soldiers of the Ross Revolution. Since we last spoke in December, I played backgammon with Mike Bloomberg as Brooklyn was irrevocably destroyed by blizzard, directed a foot fetish video with Rex Ryan's wife, and wept with John Boehner as he took this oversized mallet. (Insert "Compensating much?" joke here)

Oh, and you scrappy mothers raised an army of 800 unique voters to name us Deli Magazine's Artist of the Month and be on their year-end list of top NYC bands. Thank you guys and dolls, you'll see below we'll need you even more in 2011 to achieve Pinky and The Brain-style world domination. In the meantime, our famous Saturday night Band opens the year with a huge debut gig at everyone's favorite new venue featuring world premiere songs. And it's free homie gee!

Danny Ross and Band Wreck Rockwood Stage 2

What will 2011 bring? To start, our first gigs in Boston (Save the Date!

And if you like The Beatles (Hi, I'm Earth) and you like ukulele, come see me open for Ben Kweller and Nellie McKay @ Brooklyn Bowl this Saturday night 1/15 8pm. Here's a cut we made of "Baby's in Black" a few months back. Catch ya later, crocodile.
