D.A. Young is a Song Stylist... in the American Songbook popular-jazz idiom. D.A.'s act features elegant, sophisticated music, and a smooth style. He performs classic material from the fun side of swing, romantic love ballads, and dramatic torch songs. He is an expressive singer, ranging from dispassionate and cool to dramatic and evocative. His love for the material shines through on every carefully crafted song. Primarily a vocalist, D.A. accompanies himself, solo, on a big-bodied, jazz-style guitar, or performs with a traditional jazz trio: keyboard, bass and drums (or larger ensemble). A former session singer, published songwriter, bandleader and nightclub performer, D.A. became a jazz singer in the past decade, singing standards and ballads around Indianapolis at various events, restaurants and wine bars. He broke into local jazz clubs in 2007, with the release of his standards CD, “A Place to Dream” with pianist Ken Fary and other top Indy players. After two years on hiatus, Daniel “D.A.” Young has returned to vocal performing with a stronger voice, more tonal range, and a more soulful delivery. He is currently a featured regular at Chris McShay's open mike at the Red Lion in Fountain Square, on Wednesday evenings. He recently performed at an event at the Muncie Convention Center with bassist Bill Myers, with other Central Indiana appearances TBA.
