Dan Weber
Dan Weber, all the way from Texas, was scheduled to perform at the Indy Folk Series on May 17. Due to a serious of unfortunate events, which could find their way into one of his songs someday, Dan is unable to play at the Indy Folk Series this year. While we’ll miss Dan and hope to see him in Indianapolis soon. we’re delighted to welcome the Montvales on May 17 instead!
Dan Weber is an award winning songwriter who has been described as “reminiscent of early John Prine.”
A former Park Ranger at Canyonlands National Park, Weber draws inspiration from a wide range of life experiences: growing up as an altar boy and Eagle Scout; painting houses, following the Grateful Dead; and quitting his real estate business to pursue songwriting and touring full-time. He has a knack for telling funny stories, so if you like Guy Clark, Robert Earl Keen, or Hayes Carll, you’ll love Dan Weber’s music.
In 2019, Dan was the winner of the prestigious Woody Guthrie songwriting contest for ‘Ever Since Columbine’, and in 2021 he was named a rare 4 time finalist in the legendary Kerrville ‘New Folk’ songwriting competition. In 2022, he released ‘The Way the River Goes’, which promises to be his best work yet. He currently lives near Dallas, Texas.
Legendary Folk troubadour Ramblin’ Jack Elliott said “I love Dan’s songs and he tells really good stories.”
