Daniel is an award-winning songwriter, performer, broadcaster and several other words ending in ‘er’.

His deeply moving tales about his family and observational comedy are a joy. Feuding tailors, a naughty rabbi, family fables (and foibles) – all the human condition is here, lovingly and intelligently depicted in a remarkable collection of stories-in-song. With brilliant rhyming and wordplay, great musicianship and haunting tunes, this is an evening that you’ll never forget.
