I removed this track from the new album, so this is now a podcast exclusive, unplugged version of "Lime Light". There was something I didn't quite hit with for re-release, but I also thought it deserved to be heard, so enjoy!!

"Photo Album" was written last night, and recorded today, October 23rd, 2021, and is a purely reflective and relaxing instrumental. I love the guitar chord progression, high up n the fretboard, some lightly salted lead guitar riffs, and a few pads to support the thoughtful process. I hope you love it, and SHARE IT! My new album will be out in January of 2022, called "Stars You Can't See" in digital stores everywhere. Thanks for listening! (exclusive, download on Bandcamp, and pay what...

Tuning changes anyone? Dropped to DGDGBD tuning for this instrumental reflection, and am considering adding words to it, for now its a free instrumental download that you can enjoy from the future project, "Stars You Can't See" that I'm quite excited about it will feature some new and returning songs with all new recordings and mixing. Hope you'll stay tuned for that announcement! This song has some power, a bit of depth to it, and a lot of feel in the chorus strum!   Help support Danny...

Haven't played this in several years, until today,  it jumped right out at me, and may make the "Stars You Can't See" upcoming project. I hope you'll enjoy it and share with someone who loves acoustic music. Hope you're getting plenty of rest out there!

I can't sleep, I keep thinking about stories about James Allen, Sports Lodge Producer, and our two years working together at Angels Radio AM 830. I was laying in bed reflecting on memories, sound sheets, guests, laughs, and how much our years working side by side, the two of us, meant to me, and it took me a half-night to realize how many ways he affected me.    I recorded 12 minutes. I meant for it to be 2. I'm hopeful it might make it out on the air on AM 830, as a suitable memory of the...

I enjoyed the 4th of July Weekend in Lake Tahoe California, but really missed my guitar. This theme was running through my mind, as if my instrument were beside me, so I sat to record it and share it. I took no edits or second passes, so it is a thorough one-take recorded acoustic piece, but I like the ripples and waves it makes, just like the water on the surface of Lake Tahoe. Enjoy, and thanks to Podbean for the bandwidth for this free music for the world project! Help support Danny...

In a simple recording session, I reflected on some thoughts of appreciation and frustration, that melded together to create this song. It's a combination I rarely right in, and I am surprised that I actually stuck in the studio tonight to take it from stanza to song demo, I hope you enjoy it, and I am grateful for the chance to appear in several Couch Concerts, thanks to the coordinators, and everyone who has been supporting my music, before, during, and since! Also, thanks to all 250k+ of...

I first composed this about 12 years ago, and it never really made a collection, or performance, or studio album, and now I think it might be ska potential, what do you think? I think it has classic summer nodes to it, pools, towels, refreshments, and sunshine!   Help support Danny Hauger's Music Podcast new album "Lime Light" on Bandcamp  (pay what you want!

Nada Surf music was a light through the last 2 years. I consider them a musical mentor, and I admire their ability to convey vast emotion through refreshingly unique songs, track to track, transcending decades with new pathways, positive motivation & tons of feeling. Thank you! Watch the video here!

On today’s episode of Inspiring Teachers, I share an interview for my World History students with Annalise Bourgeois, Supporter Experience Senior Manager - Charity:Water. Annalise and I discuss the importance of making an impact on the world, how 12.7 million people are getting access to clean water, at the time of recording, and Charity:Water’s focus on helping the world’s people get clean water and all of the impacts along with it.

Just a ukulele and vocals, very rare scheme for recording, came off the heels of recording an Inspiring Teachers podcast, had a purity that I did not want to take back with any more layers, certainly a contender to be remixed for the next album. Enjoy! Recorded and written in about an hour!   When your eyes aren't open,  When your feeling unfiltered, and tossed aside. When you’re feeling lonesome.  I’ll be there to turn to you  I’ll be there to hear what you’re really...

Finishing cleaning out my classroom after the most unprecedented year of my lifetime. Played the shaker with Scotch Tape, one rhythm track fingerpicking, and one-take of solo overdub. Kind of the classic Danny Hauger recording in the style of my 2005-2010 instrumentals, hope you enjoy it! Thanks for listening!

Maybe an instrumental for a Hotel Lobby with Eastern influences, or the front room of a fusion lounge. Strange but somehow good at the same time? Features chimes, strings, and traditional instruments with a house/techno beat. 

I had no idea what keys I was playing today, what chords they made, only played by sound, and liked that came out. Essentially 3 piano parts, interchanged, with drum variations, and then an impromptu guitar and bass session to fill out, it felt finished at that point, and here it is! Support Danny Hauger Music on all digital music outlets, and standby for a new instrumental album later this year!

Four years ago today I recorded a song called "I Believe" and included an unplugged version on my album, "Songs to Wake Up To" Now, that version may be better than what I did over the past 2 hours, but I had a good afternoon recording and enjoying the harmony and reimagination of the song, as "Every Now and Then", here presented as a free, unmixed demo. Should it go on the next album? What would you change? Thanks for listening! Thanks Podbean for allowing me the bandwidth to share free...

Sometimes 20 minutes passes in a flash when you're jamming with the BeatBuddy looper, its phenomenal, and I cut the last 6 minutes without editing to share with you here, in a track that I'm calling, "Adornment", I love it, and hope you will too. Its about 3 guitars and a bass track, recorded live from my studio, enjoy the free download, and get in touch for booking, licensing, or just to say hi on Twitter @DHXmusic or Instagram @DannyHauger.  Thanks!

My second banjo recording, so be kind to it on Twitter! (@DHXmusic). "Return" is my first song that I wrote on guitar, so I figured it would be appropriate to bring out an early banjo recording of it as well.
