Danny Toeman<br />
Mr Showtime)<br />
a feel-good love song. Toeman expresses how gratitude was the<br />
inspiration for the new track sharing, “This song came to me as I<br />
was travelling home from a random gig in the middle of nowhere,<br />
clunky guitar case and amplifier taking up space in the train carriage.<br />
I was thinking about the show and how despite how small it<br />
was, the audience had shown so much love for my set. I wondered<br />
what they would think if they saw me now and if they knew it was<br />
their reaction that keeps me going. So I decided to write something<br />
that would express my appreciation to them and all other audiences<br />
who’ve had a similar effect on me”.<br />
Influenced by the power and swagger of James Brown, the pained<br />
romance of Marvin Gaye, and the uplifting joy of Curtis Mayfield,<br />
Toeman combines his love of classic soul with modern elements,<br />
bringing a new sound of soul, whilst forging his own path into<br />
unchartered territory. Thematically his music narrates finding the<br />
sweetness in the sour and getting through the rough times with<br />
dignity. “I try and keep my music positive and aspirational, in<br />
matters of life and love, matter how hard the present<br />
circumstances. This is the message I have always found at the heart<br />
of the music I love”, admits Toeman.<br />
When he is not performing, writing and producing music, the<br />
musician hopes to flaunts his powerful charisma as a professional<br />
wrestler, having taken up training last year. Whether in the ring<br />
or on stage, he displays a charming eccentricity and incomparable<br />
flair that consistently captivates his audience.<br />
To date, Toeman has performed to sold out audiences at prestigious<br />
venues such as Alexandra Palace and the o2 Arena, as well as<br />
supporting soul luminaries such as Kool & The Gang, Betty Wright,<br />
Michael Kiwanuka, and Charles Bradley. His music can also be<br />
heard in a global advertising campaign for Toyota, on Saturday<br />
Night Live and in Made in Chelsea, as well as receiving national<br />
radio airplay from the likes of BBC 6 Music’s Craig Charles.<br />
Put quite simply, there is no other artist quite like Danny Toeman.<br />
With a full album release on the horizon and a range of live dates<br />
on the way, now is the ideal time to catch an awe inspiring live<br />
performance from a true rising star. ‘Give It All Up (Mr Showtime)’<br />
is currently available worldwide.<br />
