Dan Wilson on Rockwiz

I spotted Dan Wilson a few weeks back on Rockwiz and was really taken with his act. He walked out on stage, kind of nerdy looking, sits down behind his piano and by now I’m thinking who is this guy?

Then he started singing and I was just blown away. Clever words and a great vocal performance. The song he performed was “Breathless” and if you haven’t heard it take the time. Click on the Rockwiz link and you to will be thinking “Damn this guy is good”.
