The performance is based on the life and musical career of Dan Meichel, a Calgary based jazz musician who inspired musicians and performers across Western Canada. “Ultimately, it’s a story about the passion for music that drives music fans and musicians in a search to find new sounds and forms that captivate our hearts and souls,” says Sands. “The play is a tribute to Danny’s questing spirit that was always searching for the new and the profound and how he influenced my understanding about music and about life.”=0D=0A=

Sands has been described as “a gregarious and engaging storyteller” (Calgary Herald). His previous show, CHARLIE: A Hockey Story has delighted audiences in Fringe Festivals across Canada and has been described as “honest, heartfelt and well-crafted” (Edmonton Vue Weekly) and as “one of the best storytelling shows I have ever seen.” (The Craig, Victoria).=0D=0A=
