Taking inspiration from such diverse artists such as Billy Joel, Frank Turner, The Beatles and Tim Minchin, Dan Poole really does bring a sense of uniqueness to his music. By combining acoustic guitar with subtle humour along with looped vocal lines and cheeky guitar riffs, a smile is bound to be put on your face when listening to Dan Poole.
‘’My songs are a journal of how I feel, and I have no problem explaining my lyrics to people. It annoys me when people say that music is travelling in the wrong direction; how can it be when there is still singer/songwriters out there writing music that they love; music isn’t something in the charts that only clubs play, it’s something that we all have and we all love.’’ says Dan. Whether its lyrics describing his hatred for time travelling hipsters or a soppy love song, Dan’s lyrics are sure to relate to anyone putting a very definable feel to all his songs.
He has been playing local for a few years playing at large events such as the Queens Jubilee Celebration (Stamford Meadows) and the SNAP Festival. He thoroughly enjoys making people laugh and smile and always leaves his performance with a positive outlook.
After starting a Degree in Music for Practitioners, Dan has recorded his first Demo EP featuring 5 tracks; upbeat and from the heart ‘Measurements’ is a real testament to Dan’s music and really shows off all his skills as a travelling Singer/Songwriter.

His illustrious career has taken him on tour around the world, many times over, and placed him in the top tier of electronic music artists of his ilk.

Since 2007 Duke Dumont has channeled his deep love for electronic music into a variety of acclaimed releases, moving through pumping electro and vibrant techno to conquer the UK charts with “Need U 100%.” His early releases on Tiga’s Turbo Recordings helped establish his reputation for producing high quality club music that moves the dance floor, physically and emotionally.

Tracks like “The Giver” cemented Dumont’s rep for catchy hooks, precision arrangement and powerful emotion. A year later he hit the No.1 spot in the UK charts with “Need U (100%) (featuring A*M*E),” demonstrating his ability to merge classic house motifs with first-rate songwriting.

“Need U (100%)” was followed with another UK No.1 “I Got U,” both songs achieving platinum sales. Between 2013 and 2020 he hit the Billboard Dance Chart No.1 with seven singles, including "The Power,” “Won’t Look Back” and “Ocean Drive.” With each release Duke Dumont stayed true to his club roots, achieving widespread success.
