Daniel Davies is a Los Angeles-based guitarist, composer, and singer whose music ranges from hard rock to horror soundtracks. The son of Kinks guitarist Dave Davies and godson of director/composer John Carpenter, Davies has music and cinema in his blood. He spent much of the 2000s as the singer and guitarist of Year Long Disaster, a band influenced by '70s blues-rock and Southern rock, before briefly joining stoner rock heroes Karma to Burn during the early 2010s. He kept busy composing music for films and TV series throughout the decade, and recorded and performed with Carpenter, who started releasing non-soundtrack albums and touring in 2015. Davies' debut solo album, the imaginary soundtrack Events Score, appeared in 2018. In addition to releasing solo recordings such as 2021's Spies EP, he continued working with Carpenter on projects like the score to that year's Halloween Kills.
