Welcome to The List,
Marvel is BIG on origin stories for their superhero’s on the big screen so,…HERE DAN gives us the origin story for Dan + Shay….
Dan: “We were at a party, at my house, and per usual, we were playing guitars, and passing guitars and singing covers. So Shay and I were hanging out that night, and I distinctly remember, I was like ‘This guy is pretty good at singing.’ And the next day we wrote a song, and that song got put on hold by a major artist that night, and we started writing more, and more songs. And we’re like, ‘This is going to work,’ and then somebody told us, ‘You guys should be a duo,’ and we’re like ‘Let’s do it.’”
Shay: “And here we are.”
And THEY will be at the Iowa State Fair Saturday August 21st
