Dan E.T. is brainchild/singer/songwriter Danny Torgersen, who has built a reputation as a prominent & prolific trumpet player across the American Reggae & HipHop genres. Torgersen was first known for his time as the charismatic frontman of popular “space-jazz” outfit Captain Squeegee, but has also been a staple on tour and in-studio for years with acts like Grieves, Badfish, Mouse Powell, The Irie, and Fayuca. Enlisting the talents of Gerhardt Koelsch on drums and Corey Groove on bass, his new “solo” departure delivers a fresh perspective on Torgersen's signature vocal delivery and lyrical topics (aliens and conspiracies and philosophy! oh my!) while combining elements of rock, reggae, ska, and jazz with dramatic and catchy melodies. Their reggae-inspired debut single, “RoundTrip” (released April 2023) features rapper The Kaleidoscope Kid, and their follow up, “Do You Right”, features frequent collaborator and tourmate Grieves. The singles will eventually lead to the release of the project's debut EP in 2024!
