Daniel Norgren

Daniel Norgren is a Swedish singer-songwriter from Borås, Sweden. His music is described as rough and soulful, with influences that reach back to pre-war blues and gospel, early garage rock and jazz. He works across blues, folk and rock, with a blues rock edge.

Performance style

As a live performer, Norgren often appears as a one-man band, playing electric guitar, drums, kazoo and harmonica himself. He also performs with a full band.
