Set within the intimate confines of No.28 in Derby, The Dan Collective will deliver a sophisticated evening honouring the intricate fusion of jazz, rock, and soul characteristic of Steely Dan. This five-piece ensemble of professional musicians presents their own stylish interpretations of the legendary group's outstanding catalogue across a lineup of various tracks. Scheduled for February 6, 2027, the performance promises a rich auditory experience that captures the atmospheric depth of the original material. Tickets are available from £19.00 for this forthcoming event.
The Dan Collective are a five-piece band of professional musicians who perform their own stylish versions of Steely Dan's outstanding fusion of jazz, rock and soul. Comprising some of the midlands most talented musicians, they each have years of experience playing an eclectic mix of musical genres in venues small and large across the UK (from bistro bars to concert halls and even Glastonbury). Individually, they have played together in many different guises, but their shared love of the music of Steely Dan and the challenge of playing such complex music brought them together to form The Dan Collective.
The band plays music from the entire Steely Dan catalogue, from the very first 1972 album 'Can't Buy a Thrill' through to the 2000 multi Grammy award winning 'Two Against Nature'.
Expect a rock-solid rhythm section, blistering guitar and sax solos, lush keyboards and sublime vocals. Our aim is to be as faithful as possible to the original music of Becker and Fagen whilst extending and improvising around the major themes as the mood and audience reaction takes us - and most of all, have fun doing it! We may even get you dancing!
The Dan Collective are:
Ian Hill - Saxophones
Chris Watts - Keyboards / Vocals
Ian Beestin - Drums
Frank McCarthy - Guitar / Vocals
Mark Walker - Bass / Vocals
The Dan Collective, "an impressively accurate tribute band": The Independent
"If Lord Lucan played bass, this is what he'd look like...": The Melody Maker
"Singer/pianist Chris Watts was a spit for the young Donald Fagen.": The Independent
