Welcome to "The Dan Project". After 22 years as a firefighter I have decided to follow my passion of the banjo and Bluegrass Music. My mission is to play my banjo in as many different countries as possible, meet as many people as I can and spread the love of bluegraass music and the banjo around the world. My trip will begin on December 18, 2013. I fly to London England where I will connect with my two beautiful daughters and extended family to celebrate the holidays.

The Robin Hood
Friday night The Transatlantic Bluegrass band performed to a packed house at The Robin Hood
pub in Montpellier. A great time was had by all and many notes were put out into the universe. With Simon Guy playing guitar, Jonathan Sarrabia playing a mean bass, Andy Lawson on Mando, Dan Monte Calvo on Banjo and one of the most amazing singers I have had the pleasure to play and sing with, Cristal Sutherland on vocals.
Thank you all for showing up and supporting The Robin Hood Pub, The Transatlantic Bluegrass Band and Bluegrass in France. Hope to see you this Wednesday at O'livers pub in Montpellier for an other round of live bluegrass with The Apple Trees!

A week in the country
Hi everyone,
I just spent the most beautiful last 5 days in the countryside of the South of France, staying with my friends Andy and Camilla, the most gracious hosts you could ever dream of. Living in a beautiful converted barn in the peaceful village of Peret, their home overlooks the expansive rolling hills and wine vineyards of the South. Our days were spent hiking the countryside, playing music and preparing and eating amazing food along with afternoon siestas! A true piece of heaven on earth! Thank you my friends.
It was so nice having some peace and quiet and a breath of fresh air away from the busy heart Montpellier

"The Dan Project", busking in the heart of Montpellier center and this Wednesday I'm playing a gig with the band, Apple Trees, in a local pub. Join us, The Transatlantic Bluegrass Band, January 31st as we tear it up at the Robin Hood Bar.

I do hope you have enjoyed the youtube posts and pictures of old and new friends. We are waiting for a cable to arrive so we can download video footage and post part of the documentary for your viewing.
Thank you for your patience and I hope you like following my adventure!
