Dan Singer and Players Repairs History


My name is Dan Singer and I've been a working musician for about as long as I can remember.  I'm a singer / vocalist and an adequate guitarist, as I hope you think by the audio tracks found on this site.

I was 7 years old when I took my first piano lesson and when I was 11 or 12  years old I started taking guitar lessons from a guy named Al Carness at a little store on Laurel Canyon Blvd. owned by some old coot named Duke Miller. Soon, Al and his partner, Mike McGuire, bought the place and called it Valley Arts Guitar.
When I was 15 they gave me a job as their wide-eyed teenage janitor. I'd come in after school and on Saturdays, clean the teaching studios, bathrooms, mopping the floor, etc.  Eventually, they moved the store to Ventura Blvd. in Studio City (and I went to college), where it became one of the premier music stores in Los Angeles and one of the great custom houses in the US.

Since then I've been playing guitar and singing with my band - The Dan Singer Band - working in music, working around music, working on instruments... owned my own club for about 6 years, had countless other jobs - but mostly I've been playing music and working on guitars, because... that's what I do best.

In 2002, I moved up to the central coast of California, where I continued to make a living playing music and working alongside Syd Carr for Ed Frawley at Central Coast Music in Morro Bay.

Recently, I moved back to Los Angeles to take care of my aging mother and aunt. I decided that, since I had to be here, I might as well open my own repair shop.

I'm back in LA playing music and I get to work on guitars and basses, the occasional ukulele, dulcimer, balalaika, violin, cello... heck, some stuff I've never seen before.
What could be better?

I've been a working musician all my life... or so it seems.  I've been fortunate enough to have had many incredible musicians share the stage with me or let me share the stage with them.
Current and/or previous members of my little band of misfits include "Mississippi" Mike Hightower, Hank Van Sickle, George Nastos, Manny Alvarez, Steve Trovato, "Guitar Jack" Wargo, Jay Leslie, Bobby Schneck, Danny Ritter, Kirk (Arthur) Trachsel, Ronnie Lee Cunningham, Alex Davis, Jim Kersey, Greg Brown, Jud Davidson, Syd Carr, Ed Frawley, Tracy Morgan, Lenny Blue and, of course, Bruce Cornett (BROOOCE!), to name just a few.
Music is my first and truest love (after you, baby... you hold my heart in your hands).
I'm happiest when on stage or when working on instruments and can't wait to get up every day and go to my shop.
