"I get to tour in Europe and I can't get sued for malpractice" are the reasons former psychologist Dan Hart gives for abandoning the 50-minute hour for the life of a singer/songwriter. Now based in Boston, Dan has been performing his unique mix of folk, rock and comedy at clubs across the U.S. and Europe for 30 years.  Dan's tours have taken him to 30 states and 8 European countries.  Dan was born in Chicago and grew up in Los Angeles, the son of a broadcaster and a writer.  Since leaving L.A. he has lived in almost every region of the U.S.; his lyrics combine Midwestern honesty, West Coast humor and East Coast cynicism.
