Daniel Donato

The debut record from 25-year-old Daniel Donato brings together jam band music and outlaw country. It comes after about a decade of playing guitar professionally in Nashville. When he was 16, he was the youngest person to ever play with the Don Kelly Band at the historic Robert’s Western World and then toured with musicians like Paul Cauthen. A Young Man's Country&nbsp;was produced by Robben Ford and draws from his inspirations, such as The Grateful Dead and Merle Haggard. Hear how he tries to combine all of those into his banner of "cosmic country" and the story of how he got into the Grateful Dead thanks to his high school history teacher.&nbsp; <a rel="payment" href="http://bit.ly/KOSUdonate">Support this podcast</a>
