A California SF Bay Area native, Dan began drumming at
a young age,
and soon focused on
jazz and rock styles. He performed with many bands
prior to studying at Cal State University Northridge. Playing progressive rock and rock projects has filled most of his
drumming time. Credits include HyNGE, Marc Cooper/Joel
Jaffe, Castles in Spain,
Everything Nothing, Jane His
Wife, BeBe Gunn, Greg Lamboy, City and numerous fill-in dates over the years. A
large variety of studio sessions
over several decades has given him experience in a
wide range of musical feels. Dan's powerful and precise
rhythms drive songs. His drumming has been described as
musical.
Dan is also a licensed Chiropractor and Qualified Medical Evaluator
for the State of California. He shares his information on injury
prevention and injury care through his website

Buch, Ronnie Montrose and Van Spragins - 2011. RIP
Ronnie...you are a legend.
Some of Dan's major
influences include, Aynsley Dunbar,
Buddy Rich, Terry Bozzio, Bill Bruford, Larry Londin, Carl Palmer, Mark Craney and Rayford
Griffen. "There are so many excellent drummers in the
various genres; I have great respect for those who have
given so much back to the art of drumming and music; they
constantly inspire me!"
Expose Progressive Music Magazine - I'm particularly impressed by the attention paid to percussion texturing, no doubt thanks to Buch. At times he reminds me of Bill Bruford and at others like Ginger Baker, especially with his work on the toms. It just goes to show there's no reason that the drum position in a group can't contribute as much as the others. - Paul Hightower
