Daniel Roy Connelly

Daniel Roy Connelly is a multiple-prize-winning author who has decided to bring his poetical sensibilities to songwriting. He has lived across the globe and his lyrics represent - among many other things - his internationalist outlook. Inspired by great Indie Rock writing, e.g. The National, Arcade Fire, and James - and quirk such as Sparks, Daniel Roy constantly seeks to write about the unusual and less obvious from within life's daily routines; love, loss, anger, joy, fear and triumph are consistently re-framed and peppered with his renowned humor.
