- The Daniel Vzeu band was born in March 2007, after singer/songwriter Daniel pinned up a few notices around Edinburgh looking for a brass section. What he got was a couple of hobos in the form of Will Bates on Cornet and Mark Bell on Trombone. Since that moment we all met it has all clicked together and as a trio, then a quartet (Adding the talented Flugel of Cheryl Saunders), then to the now awesome six piece, (Adding Beatboxer Jack Attack and Pads on drums) we have hit the pubs and clubs of Edinburgh and Glasgow, bringing our own special brand of feel good songs to the world. If you like artists such as Jack Johnson, Jason Mraz, Ben Harper etc, then add a wad of brass and you ahve the Vzeu sound
Our live performances can be viewed on the video spot, and are also featured on Youtube (Just search for "Daniel Vzeu") All comments are gratefully received, and bookings are eagerly accepted, send a mail and we will be in contact.

Updates and Bad Breaks
Well I thought I should write a little update seeing as we've neglected the page a little bit lately.
A few things have happened since the Bodog Battle night, I shall list them for you
1. Daniel has secured himself a guitar endorsement deal with Freshman Guitars, a fantastic deal for him as they are a well respected, world recognised and SCOTTISH guitar company. you can vist the site here http://www.freshmanguitars.co.uk
2. We played a Quiet Riot night at the Drawing Room Bar in Glasgow, a major success as we introduced our new addition to the lineup, Beatboxer Jack-Attack. Adding a new dimension to the band sound we brought the house down with an hours set. We will be back again tomorrow 1st December 2007, it's the bars birthday bash so should be a great night, with the Congregation sounds filling the room.
3. Bad news as our cornetist Master Bates has broken his collarbone playing rugby. This means that he has had a metal plate inserted into his shoulder, and will be off the cornet until Mid January. A big blow for us, and bigger blow for him, as he hasn't been able to drink since it happened!!!!!!!
4. We will be recording sometime between the 13th and 18th December, four song demo with the full band line up (With Cheryl Saunders taking the place of the newly bionic Master Bates) The demo will be shipped out to interested parties and of course to our loyal fans, this will include at least one new song (as yet untitled) and new versions of old songs, let me know if you want a CD, and I'll get one out to you.
5. Daniel appeared at a guitar convention in Leicester, giving a showcase of his best stuff and showing off his swanky new guitar to the industry types. A great response has resulted in a number of sold demos and some possible indusry interest, fingers crossed that our recording in December hits the spot.
So that's all just now folks, will update you as always on any new developments, songs, and as always, any comments are gratefully received.
Luv
