'Breathless', that's the current, charming single. That's the way you listen to it too, breathless. Because Dan Wilson is also a musical craftsman: making melodious, moving, songs to sing along to (humming is allowed too). No direct family of Brian. Also not to be confused with Danny Wilson. But you'll definitely still know Dan Wilson from Semisonic and that constant Chemistry!
More recent collaborations? With James Morrison (see too: AB 19 October) for 'Once When I Was Little', with Carrie Rodriguez for 'She Ain't Me', with Dixie Chicks for 'Not Ready To Make Nice' (good enough for a Grammy as Song Of The Year!)
This American's talent was also spotted by none less than producer Rick Rubin. So it happens that 'Free Life', Dan Wilson's first solo CD, will be out by mid September on Rick's impressive 'American' label (here via V2.)
In the meantime, have a look for the name Dan Wilson amongst all the fine print for masterpieces by Jason Mraz, Jewel, Rachael Yamagata... Or hear and see him obligingly and dashingly at work during his AB session.
