Dan Garvin is a drummer and one of the four founding members of the rock band SR-71, formerly signed to RCA Records. The band scored a #2 hit in 2001 with "Right Now", the first single from their major-label debut, ''Now You See Inside''. The other original members were Mitch Allan, who is still with the band, Jeff Reid, and Mark Beauchemin. Dan joined Honor Among Thieves, which would evolve into SR-71, in 1995 after completing his Bachelor's Degree in music from Towson University just outside of Baltimore, Maryland. With occasional personnel changes, Dan and founder Mitch Allan were the only band members to remain for the entire 5-year period prior to signing a recording contract with RCA Records. However, the final line-up brought the other two founding members, Jeff Reid and Mark Beauchemin, back into the fold. After completing the recording of ''Now You See Inside'', Dan took a hiatus from teaching over the next two years, as the success of "Right Now" meant constant touring. Dan signed on as an endorser with Vic Firth, Sabian Cymbals, and Pearl Drums. "Right Now" propelled ''Now You See Inside'' to over a half-million sales, earning the band a gold record. Dan left the group in April 2001. From there he joined the band Nine Days in support of their record, ''The Madding Crowd'', while their original drummer took a personal leave of absence. Upon completion of the tour Dan returned to his teaching practice and became a performance clinician and session musician. He also spent time the Virginia/DC-based band that would become Getaway Car, recording and performing throughout Maryland, DC, and Virginia. While not credited, his performance on the updated version of "Non-Toxic" appears on SR-71's follow-up recording, ''Tomorrow''. After the release of ''Tomorrow'', SR-71’s internal tensions continued and soon Mitch Allan was the only remaining original band member upon Jeff Reid's and Mark Beauchemin's departure. The band was dropped by RCA records in 2003. Dan continues to teach and record and is currently based in San Antonio, TX. He built a digital home studio in which to record drum tracks for artists in other parts of the country and to perform voiceovers. He is also involved in authoring eLearning modules for corporations looking to automate their training processes. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dan Garvin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
