Daniel Tavis Romano (born 1985) is a Canadian musician, poet and visual artist based out of his hometown of Welland, Ontario.[2] He is primarily known as a solo artist, though he is also a member of Attack in Black and has collaborated with Julie Doiron, Tamara Lindeman and Frederick Squire.[3] He has also produced and performed with City and Colour, the recording project of Dallas Green.[4]
The Canadian music magazine Exclaim! has identified five distinct styles in Romano's work: a gentle, rustic folk sound personified by projects such as Daniel, Fred & Julie and Workin' for the Music Man, a retro country style on albums like Sleep Beneath the Willow and If I've Only One Time Askin', straight-ahead rock on Nerveless and How Ill Thy World Is Ordered, psychedelic rock on works like Modern Pressure and Visions of the Higher Dream, and punk rock in his works released under the band name Ancient Shapes.[6]
On January 4, 2018, Romano released two simultaneous surprise albums, Human Touch and Nerveless.[9]
In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada, Romano released several new albums of both newly recorded and archival material in quick succession.[10] This began with the surprise album Visions of the Higher Dream, which was made available on his Bandcamp page for just $3.[11] He followed up with the live album Okay Wow[12] and the studio album Content to Point the Way,[13] both recorded with his backing band The Outfit; and Super Pollen, a collaborative EP recorded with his brother Ian and Mike Haliechuk and Jonah Falco of Fucked Up.[14] In May, he followed up with Forever Love's Fool, a 22-minute progressive rock track recorded with Danny Carey of the band Tool.[15]
On June 18, 2021, Romano released a live album titled Fully Plugged In. Romano also announced another new album, Cobra Poems, set to release on September 10, 2021.[16] He is also featured on Doiron's 2021 album I Thought of You.[17]
