Daniel Patrick Quinn

Biography

British musician, composer, producer and performer born February 26th 1981, Ipswich, England. Founder of the experimental Edinburgh-based record label Suilven Recordings (2003 - early 2006) which released his own works and that of post-minimalist ambient American composers DAC Crowell and Kurt Doles, with whom he also collaborated. Quinn's work is difficult to pigeonhole, seemingly taking influence from as disparate genres as European folk and folklore, pastoral ambient, punk and post-punk, minimalism, classical, spoken-word, jazz and avant-garde thought. Key works include Severed From the Land (2004) and Ridin' the Stang (2005). Currently lives in London where he fronts the experimental rock band One More Grain, who have a second album out in January 2008 on White Heat Records. New solo album entitled "Acting The Rubber Pig" due out later in 2008. www.danielpatrickquinn.com
