BIOGRAPHY
Daniel Fears was raised in Houston, Texas. The multi-instrumentalist and singer grew up attending Lakewood Church in Houston where his mom was the music director. By age 11 he was playing the trombone in his school band and then after moving to a smaller church, he played the piano and even took up the drums and began playing for church service every week until he was 18.
During this time he was introduced to classical music by his teacher Brian Logan, a trombone player who played with the Houston Symphony and was a contractor for the local churches. That teacher not only introduced Fears to a whole new world of music but he even helped him get into the University of Texas. After graduating, Fears was convinced to write a horns part for a friend’s song and found the experience liberating.
