Daniel Mulhern spearheads a new generation of intelligent London-based acoustic artists. His voice possesses an intimacy capable of handling a variety of musical environments with equal conviction, lending itself perfectly to the immaculately orchestrated rock infused folk ballads his voice gently meanders through. Daniel's influences include Mike Scott, Elvis Costello, Bob Dylan, Roddy Frame and Neil Finn. Daniel is also a successful multi-media composer. His varied works include several BBC documentary series', hit drama Silent Witness, productions with Derren Brown, Matt Lucas & David Walliams, Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, and songs for acclaimed Stephen Poliakoff dramas.

As a TV and Film songwriter, Daniel's venture as an acoustic artist was all about recharging his creative batteries and fulfilling the boyhood dream. Nowadays, Daniel is working with some of London's most capable session musicians, quickly gaining respect as an acoustic artist on London's live circuit and is poised to return with some real acoustic gems.

As a composer and songwriter Daniel has worked in a variety of areas - from drama and serious arts, science and social documentaries, to entertainment and comedy.

As a musician, he can be heard on the work of other composers and songwriters, including scores for Stephen Poliakoff films and numerous BBC Dramas and documentaries. He uses an assorted collection of instruments including folk instruments from South America and China, and vintage pedal steel and Gretsch guitars. Technology also plays a large part in his playing and composition, and he's always on the lookout for new tools and techniques to bring out fresh ideas.

A largely self-taught musician, Daniel cut his compositional teeth writing music for student films on the respected Film and Animation degree courses at the art college near where he grew up.

His first television composition job was a Channel 4 documentary series in 2000, which quickly led to more TV music composing work.

In 2006 he released Pigeon Coup - an album as a singer-songwriter, on the NAIM Label. His recent songwriting collaborators include Jon Allen (who was on the BBC Radio 2 playlist regularly throught 2009) and Craig Gannon (The Smiths, Aztec Camera). Daniel's own songs have appeared in TV dramas including three different Stephen Poliakoff films.
