Dan has learned from the best what it takes to be a performer in this business.
As one can see, Dan Acosta has held his own ground among the greats of Rock 'n Roll. Even if he never gets a record contract, he’s already lived out a huge part of his dream, and will always continue to do so as long as he can. Financially, the business has been a struggle for Dan, even the downfall of his marriage. He has made many unthinkable sacrifices, but his hopes are still alive. Dan is dedicated, hard working, and driven to be the best he can. Every performance has been another step closer to reaching his professional goals, as a musician, and another platform for him to gain, what most feel is, well deserved recognition. Dan doesn’t try to come off as cocky or arrogant; he’s still paying his dues in this business. He just feels that it will only be a matter of time before the brass ring will be within his reach. When that day comes, Dan Acosta will shine out among the stars…
