Hailing from Ogmore-by-Sea in the Vale of Glamorgan, Dan Bettridge is a compelling and authentic voice melding classic rock and roll with soul.
An artist inspired by a familial record collection including James Taylor, Cat Stephens and Bob Dylan, Dan Bettridge has the kind of raw imperfect lilt and guitar mastery that brings the likes Van Morrison, Eric Clapton and Chris Bell to mind.
His new track “Heavenly Father” is out 5 September.
