"One of my favorite singer-songwriters. A haunting, ageless voice; melodies that are both simple & original; wry, moving lyrics; a guitar style that's as organic as it is unpredictable. What force is he tapping into, anyway?"
~ Brady Earnhart, Virginia-based singer/songwriter
Danny Schmidt is a singing poet in the tradition of Townes Van Zandt and Leonard Cohen - a righteous artist dealing in the rough, beautiful truth. If you love a good song, he's a major find.

Instead the Forest Rose to Sing
| Called the best new songwriter in the last 15 years by Sing Out! magazine, Austin singer-songwriter Danny Schmidt writes songs that evoke Leonard Cohen and Townes Van Zandt. His Red House release is playful and profound, with that lovely poetry and off-the-grid wisdom, mixing folk, Americana and indie-roots sounds.

Little Grey Sheep
| I've lived my life in two pursuits
To capture time and free the truth
I never asked for all your love
I only asked for you
Sometimes sunshine hits my glass
And answers 'fore I have to ask
How can rainbows draw so many shortest paths?

Make Right The Time
| "I have rarely, if ever, been so moved or impressed by an artist as I have by Danny Schmidt. What else can I say, the guitar work strikes me like none other I have heard in my long life of playing guitar myself . . . Check him out, no matter what kind of music you like, check him out! I guarantee you, if you don't you are missing one of life's treats."

Enjoying the Fall
| "Choosing a language that is subtle, imaginative and yet intrinsically moral, he imbues these songs with a sense of personal pathos that removes the issues from the politics of the headlines and brings them back home to whence they sprang in the first place. . . It's this elemental beauty -- the way the guitar feels tuned to the chords of the central nervous system, the way Schmidt and Wood's voices interact knowingly -- that sets this music apart.
