Biography

Coming from a family of musicians, Dan Chief grew up surrounded by guitars, voices, and songs. Music has always been part of his life — it never really began, it simply has always been there. From a very young age, he learned to play the guitar and started performing with his father, with whom he founded the band Blue Moon, active for over a decade on local stages.


After the band ended, he built his house and created his own studio, which has become a true gathering and creative space. There, he continues to play, improvise, and welcome other musicians. Surrounded by family and kind neighbors, he lives music with a spirit of freedom, simplicity, and sharing.


For him, music is neither a project nor a profession — it’s a way of life, a passion that has always been part of who he is.
