58 year old California native Dana Gonzales has been a staple on the Los Angeles music scene for over 35 years. Playing in classic rock, punk, new wave, surf, reggae, ska , blues and jazz outfits. Dana has created a diverse style that never strays from the emotional core of any genre he plays. In '2000 Dana released "Music From The Ledge" on independent label R.O.S. records.(and there's a story to tell) As diverse as Dana's style, the Cd is a showcase for his versatility. The Cd is available for sale on CD Baby.com and can be sampled on the Cd Baby website. Tracks#1 and #4 (Affair & My Only Regret) can be heard in Carlos Portugals independent film "East Side Story" "

“Because of my love for songs from The Great American Song Book, I have compiled a repertoire of my favorites that incorporate a chord melody approach with subtle vocal styling’s ala Chet Baker and Mose Alison. Segue that into some Marvin Gaye, Al Green, Bill Withers, Carol King, Bob Marley and Steeley Dan, you can enjoy my diversity and musicianship.”

In 2014 Dana introduced his band Lava Lamp And Hot Lava. This was the perfect platform for Dana to present some of his original blues rock tunes as well as some choice instrumental covers.

Stay tuned. Peace
