Richard Dance, aka The Crawdaddy, is a world-touring guitarist and songwriter whose musical career spans twenty nations on six continents.  He has opened for quite a few music legends, and has shared the stage or studio with players from the bands of Lyle Lovett, Dr. John, Stevie Nicks, and Glen Campbell, among other musical greats.

His touring days are over, and The Crawdaddy now focuses on composing songs with lyrics and  instrumentals for Film & TV.  Genres: classic soul, southern rock, R&B, funk, blues, country, lounge/chillout, rock electronica, on and on. But no matter the genre, everything grooves. Professional and versatile, The Crawdaddy always delivers on time. Contact: rdance@q.com.
