Daniel Band

Canadian heavy metal band formed in 1981 by vocalist/bass player Dan McGabe and guitarist/keyboard player Bill Findlay. The line-up, which remained remarkably stable over the course of the band's career, was completed by Tony Rossi (vocals, guitar) and Matt Delouca (drums). Taking their cue from April Wine, Triumph and Y&T, they specialized in melodic hard rock, with extended guitar and keyboard passages. Unlike many Christian rockers, the religious message was secondary to some excellent music.
