Polar Night Vol. 1 is how I imagine a Winter visit to Tromsø, Norway, a city of 75,000 well in the arctic circle. I hope to visit soon, then make Vol. 2 based on my experiences.

While I was waiting for schedules to line up on other projects, I occupied myself in summer with an arctic theme. It was refreshing to exercise different creative muscles with a largely experimental recording. It was a really fun and fast-moving toboggan ride to record. A little harder to mix, but not quite a (polar) bear.

All the “percussion” is electric guitar, and with rare exception the instrumentation is limited to e guitar and Moog Sub 37.

It’s filled with celestial wonders and geological violence. I hope you like it.

I took the cover photo on final decent into Oslo in 2017.

Never a time before, got me walking in a straight line, 8 miles as the crow flys, never a lie before, to this world resigned, when love and hate is a fine line, never a time before, coming at you in a straight line, from 8 miles high.

Never A Time Before

Virtual Riot - In My Head Ft. PRXZM (Niosix Remix)

Explosively expatriated from the farmlands of Ohio, singer-songwriter Doli Stepniewski breathes mischievous spirit into creative alter-ego, DareDevilDale. Known for effusive hooks and anthemic power-pop melodies, he creates vivid tales of love and catastrophe… fit for the pages of a graphic novel. Each song pulls equally from Stepniewski’s own experiences as both an accomplished touring musician (Owsley, Amy Grant, Under The Big Top) and a successful tech entrepreneur. The result is an accessible yet divergent sound delivered with a wink and nod to musical superheroes Stewart Copeland, Gordon Sumner, Andy Summers, Stuart Adamson and John Taylor.
