Daniel told 4BR: "I have been fortunate that there has been a growing demand for my music in the last few years thanks to a competitions success and commissions from performers and bands.

I know it's a difficult time for bands and players at the moment, but I hope they take the opportunity to explore what music I've got to offer them and consider adding it to their repertoire when they do get back to rehearsals."
